that curled up leaf really makes this painting ….............perfection
thepaintedsoul replied
Funny, this is the one I love the most of the three. The colors pull together so well. Love the comp.. . and it was a challenge to convey the curled leaf underwater and above water, too.

Beautiful, I agree with Annette, the curled leaf adds to the realness of this nature painting. Water Lilies, My absolute favorite; a painting subject I keep meaning to do. Kudos ot you, Fabulously done.
