Mini Daffodils -still life by Niah (grade 6)

Niah has remarkable "colour sense"!  Look at the way she places her bright yellow blooms against a vivid blue background, drawing immediate attention to her focal point.  She doesn't stop there either --- note the wrapping on the flower pot --- First she applies bright red to the top of the  wrapping, then she repeats the same colour on the table below, pulling the viewer's eye down and around her painting.   I also really like the shadow above and below the ribbon.   Nice work!
