Sunday Postcard Art - Roses


'Old Roses'
Maybe it's the weather here in NZ that is keeping me on the 'darkside,' another reason for the dead roses! I couldn't decide which card to submit so you have two to choose from this week!

  1. I'll go for the living ones- but I do like seeing your dark side lately Judy - very creative and beautifully composed art. I like seeing both versions there is always two sides to everything. Great entry!

  3. I like them both...makes me think of the process from living roses to the dying ones. Both are beautiful in their own way!

  4. These are both breathtaking. The second one is my favourite because of the colour scheme x

  5. Both are iimpressive. I like the perspective of the tilted windowpane. Hmmm Broken windowpanes, dead roses....in a bit of a mood, are we? Whatever inspired it, it's inspired!! Kudos to you.

  10. They may be dark, but they are beautiful! I think the second is my favourite, but there's not much in it! Am I imagining it, or is there a reflection of a person in one of the panes?

  11. Judy, although I like them both, I like the bottom one best. Is your weather as bad as ours then? And it's our Summer. Sheeesh.

  19. Yes, I like them both. Everything you do is superb, Judy. Methinks you are a bit like me which my old Dad would say was "having two bob each way". Or, in other words, trying out all types of digital art without getting bogged down in one style.
    As for my "gorgeous" granddaughter, she has changed a lot although the smile is still there (when she is in a good mood). She told me to "shut off" the other day and threw some things at me because she didn't appreciate her mother leaving the house while I babysat. As soon as the door closed, she brightened up and told me she had some new Playdoh and she was happy to play for the next two hours. I think she meant to tell me to shutup but didn't get it quite right.
