Good faded background transitional movement from the varied greens at the bottom to the multi toned yellows. Very ethereal. Keeping the same feeling in the stems going from greens to yellows and yellow ochre with a suggestion of stem forms. The whites and dark to light varied blue and periwinkle controlled location splotches under the whites give depth. Nice. I don't think you intended to make those dark shadowy spots in the green field, but it works to add depth and interest to the background. I like the organized randomness of the flowers with that strong diagonal movement of dark leaf, flower pod arrangement across the lower flower field. I find the finishing touch of only three flowers placed together that have the yellow ochre centers a beautiful display of a knowledge about how to have a delicate touch and an understanding of creating eye movement within a painting by having that single yellow ochre spot in the white flower on the upper right. Can't help to feel calm and comfortable looking at this painting.

Some simply need to be a gentle, kind reminder of simple beauty that is around us all the time if we only take the time to see it. Particularly when it possesses almost perfect composition. This is one of those paintings.
