Faded Rose
Following on from The Rose ~ 1, I’ve tried a different process (also different view and using my P&S camera this time!) hopefully giving the more faded appearance.
_Sold as a mounted print to an anomymous RB buyer 16 May 09 … thank you!!! _

Sarah Moore
I LOVE this one – oh so pretty. LOL – that flute gets a work out! At least now I know why there were dead flowers all over the back table!!
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Arrrghh I uploaded an unfinished version, and you still favourited it! Thank you Sarah! Some of the dead flowers have gone – a few ‘treasures’ are lingering on in case … !!!
John Edwards
Simply beautiful
Rosalie Dale IPA replied

Rosalie Dale IPA replied

Maximus
This has such a perfect balance Rosalie, failing flowers can be OK, but laid atop the music with flute in the back=magic. :)
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Hey Maxie – don’t less Chris throw anything out – everything is worth a shot! Thanks for the kind support!
naturelover
Very beautiful- great work!!
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Thank you Pauline – appreciated
Stuart Chapman
So soft and beautiful and very well put together (I can see where your daughter gets her creativity from so easily).
The textures on the sheet music go so well with the soft roses and their eliquent shadows and the sax (is it a sax) along the top frames it all really well too.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Hugs to you Stuart – Sarah has more creativity in her little finger than I have in my whole body! Thanks for your encouragement!

GailD
This is gorgeous Rosalie. Love it . Love it.
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Glad you like it Gail – I ended up putting a saved sketch version of this over a coloured version, blending, and (after much agonizing!) this was the result.
George Petrovsky
G’day Rosalie!! One can almost hear the gentle flowing notes of this song being played by the lilting flute. Very evocative. You’ve hit the right combination of tones and the compositions of the song and the picture tug at the heartstrings. :)george
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
It is a few years since lilting sounds came from this flute, but I am pleased you ‘heard’ what I hoped for here George.

Gilberte
Rosalie..what a surprise to see your pic..I smiled thinking we were imagining the same.For weeks I have been thinking of doing something like this (but not as good of course) with my partition of “les feuilles mortes”I sent you at dpf, remember? I just never got time to start.
Your execution is sublime!!One can see the hand of the Master in it.You deserve the kiss of the jury.
I also like your text.Do you find it in Photoshop?
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Gilberte you are such an encourager! Please do go ahead and shoot your version of this – we all do things differently and it is wonderful to learn from each other. I so much admire your ‘les feuilles mortes’ ... wonderful work. The font is not in Photoshop but is Scriptina which is available from the internet. Bubble me if you need more information!! xxx

Memaa
I simply love this! What fantastic pink pastel colors. What program did you use to edit this. Your work is awesome!
Rosalie Dale IPA replied
Hi Sue. Thanks for the kind words – this is done in Photoshop (CS3) with a couple of hours of ‘whoops’ and ‘I think I’ll try this’ type processing. Trouble is this way one doesn’t always know when the inmage is done – and I’m always of 2 minds as I put it up! So pleased you like it, lovely lady.
