That is a beautiful painting. Just out of curiosity, approximatly how long did the tiny flowers on the dress take you? Is each one exactly in the place it was when she posed or were you slightly random? I am just imagining the time involved.

Congrats Marvin,
She is lovely! You did an incredible job with her hair. It truly is her crowning glory. I think you should have won, just for having the patience to paint all of those tiny little flowers.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes.
FYI the flowers were not randomly placed. They were painted freely, in the right positions so they would break up the space of the white dress without distracting from her face.
