So pretty. All of these magnolias are making me long from spring – sigh. I like this view a lot. That petal tipping down makes me think of a courtier doing that hand twirling flourish bowing thing to a king. There is one thing that bothers me about it, but I think it’s just my brain. That petal in front also makes me think of a tongue of a panting dog (lol). It’s probably just me. But maybe adding some veining to that petal could help with that. I love the shimmery highlight on the branch. Very nice.
The toning and highlights on the petals are so good Rita!!! Each petal has great form and you can see how they cup and curve! Really appreciate how strong the colors are, but yet the texture of the petals have a delicacy to them too! Wonderful job!!!!!

Vibrant, strong, good looking. I don’t see the dog tongue but a touch more veining couldn’t hurt. @pgthompson dog tongue. lol.
Gorgeous job with those petals, Rita. And your signature saturation of color here is just stunning
