[@virginiamcclure6104]

This is amazing! You have everything right and beautiful and such a variety of textures and modes from the jewel-like center, swirls, scoops, and tendrils. Even the softer bands of gold are a perfect foil to the simmering energy of the bloom. It is a wonderful composition. I hope you do many more like this.

This one’s starting to grow on me. I thinks its alive. Breathing. Or maybe that’s a heartbeat. Beautiful. One thing is certain. Jody gives more information in the description than anyone out there. That shows attention to detail and a sincere heart for sharing. I dig that big time.

[@selmadunlap8985]

I love this no matter which way it is shown- depends on the space where it is being displayed. Beautiful.

[@sherichisholm39]

That is awesome

[@LEILANIDOW]

This reminds me of the unique collections of flotsam you find walking along a beach. It's got a very earthy, organic overtone. I love the way the colors shifted and moved to give it a hint of variegation. The overall result is something truly different and beautiful! I like it vertical by the way!

[@uriurg9857]

It’s lovely.I’m going to try it with black background

[@SueBertuch]

Absolutely stunning. I love the negative space and how delicate the bloom is.🌹🌹😎😎

[@mewtbaby]

Jodi this looks like a jewelry piece, a headpiece, I see a dragon face with 2 blue eyes when horizontal. It is so magical.

[@Kelly-rt5jc]

It’s like a beautiful birthday present that you don’t even care to open because the wrapping is so pretty! Do you know what else I love about it? I love when you blow into the pillow paint and it just makes black and white cells. Especially when you drag your skewer through it and it creates little abstract designs like paisley. I like the original orientation because that’s what I think looks like a present. Oh! By the way you need a little kickstand for your spinner. I know you can figure something out because as fluid artists we are kind of like a bunch of MacGyver‘s! Lol! 💜✌️💜✌️

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

It doesn’t look like a nicely wrapped present doesn’t it 😃. Those black and white cells have always had a special place in my heart too 🤗. I have no idea why it decided to do that with this canvas, normally it’s well behaved 🤪

[@iamcolor2091]

[@ThePaintedDreamer]

Thank you Darla 🥰

[@brucerulz5297]

You know I love it when you pull yourself away from the safety of the eight and twelve inch squares and twelve by twenty four definitely fits the bill as a challenging breakaway and a tough place to take a bloom. I dig the palate which you totally own but I’m struggling with the Zeus bars for some reason. Maybe I’m seeing a prize fighters championship belt. The composition doesn’t always have to be symmetrical for my eye. If the bloom was off center a bit with the embellishment action working to resolve balance by leading the eye back to center without all the weight? Just ideas. the piece is awesome as always. Thanks for letting us pretend. BRUCErulz .
