oh my! Pure gold.
Critically, my eye keeps being drawn to the green patch on the right side - which is a shame imo because this flower has got such amazing colours that I want to spend as much time looking at them. Also there's a little patch of grey near the bottom right that sort of ruins the petal a bit.

But overall a very very very nice abstract piece.

brilliant colors! even the green between the petals is lovely.

however, i keep looking at that blob of "dew" in the middle of the petal and it's bothering the heck outta me. it's too dark to really be the focus and it's too bright to ignore. that one bit just really puts me off for some reason, otherwise i like it
