"Still" DAPping Flora

I cannot get enough of DAP lately and trying to learn how to
maximize its capability. Just another from last night.

Keep DAP-ing Dave. I will keep loving your work and being inspired. Thanks for sharing. :) Amazing what can be created!

Dave, your images just keep getting better!! Lovely colors and BG. Keep them coming!!

Dave, This is a beautiful orange Cosmo painting! I like how you blurred the BG. Did you use the defocus mask for this one also? I really like the softness it created in the BG and the muted color palette.Well done.

Thanks Chris and Akos....appreciated

Thank you Denise. I think I started with about 1200 strokes of Cezanne for bg and
switched to Benson for completion.....portrait palette. Yes, started with defocus mask at a
medium blur

Hi Dave, Beautiful use of color,blending and DAP. Nice to see the original so one can see the drastic makeover.

Dave, I like the idea of combining two different artists' looks. I'll have to try that.

Nice image, as usual. ;)
