"The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web." Pablo Picasso
The colours are so soft and pretty. I like the composition but it seems tilted to me. The lighting is good and I think gives the flower some of the softness. Nice work.
I love hollyhocks...several used to reside in my Grandmothers' garden...I really like the angle and side view on this allowing the sunlight to filter through those delicate petals...nice shot.
