I suck at painting flowers It began with my laboriously sketched image, flower complete with leaves. Then, during the painting process, I got bored with details, so abracadabra, I made all the stems and leaves disappear in the background washes.

You caught the light on the flower beautifully. As for the background.....well, I'm sure you'll call it artistic license, but I feel a leaf or two and the others just hinted at would have been nice. Now that lovely flower looks a bit lost and unconnected to the background, like someone ripped it off and tossed it away. But, hey.... that's just me.....
wow this is absolutely beautiful... you did a great job... and btw you do not suck at painting flowers... don't ever doubt yourself.. as someone said above
