Yes, very soft and a good use of primary colors, light & shadow. What is supposed to be wrong with that?

The softness works well. A brilliant flower not quite in focus.

A gorgeous painting Sylvie. I'm so glad I dropped by Abstract this morning, as this has made my day. Thanks much :)

There's something living that goes well beyond the representation. Something that's similar to Van Gogh's flowers, although the execution is much more Gauguin-like. Or perhaps Odillon Redon (whom I adore!) would be the closest.
The beauty and depth of your colors, Sylvie, reminded me of an abstract work I did a few years ago. I am starting a new thread by posting it.
