I absolutely CRINGE when I see spot color, I feel like its almost impossible to do well, and generally looks like absolute crap. but this is one of my daughter (who is an avid painter) that I was playing around with. CC welcome.

My personal opinion on this one is that it works. I like the magical mood the painting the flowers establishes.

Thanks Bob… I was very inspired by Alice in Wonderland, when the Queen of hearts card men were "painting the roses red" and going for that bit of whimsical childhood magic. I'm also attempting to create a series of storybook type images for our home library, featuring the children, as a summer project.

There are rules?
Great shot. Fun, the selective coloration works beautifully here. Nice!

WOW!!
That is a great piece of work there sixshooter!
Thinking out of the box on that one!
If I could figure out how to get the "thumbs up" icons I'd give you 10 of 'em!!
Super job!

sixshooter,
I think this image is more than just a mere picture. You are telling a story and presenting a mood with this image. I believe your spot coloring fits perfectly to bring out the mood and the story telling aspect of this theme. Love it! This is very well thought out and a beautiful aspect/display of your 'story.'
Best Regards,
Tom

I don't know if there are rules around selective color. I am not a fan. However, you created an image here that is excellent in my opinion. This image tells a story and does it very well. Very creative use of the paint palette & flowers. I love it.

I LOVE this! I don't care about rules and who cares if people don't love selective coloring! This works and looks fantastic!
