As I never ventured in this field, I can only provide impressions.

I have seen similar works trying to use the shape of the flower in an anthropomorphic way.
I do not see it here, this makes it, when looking at it first, more difficult to grasp, but also more interesting to explore.

Not much, but that's all I can say now.

Best regards,
Michael

Thank you for your impressions very appreciated
they are to make you look and explore as is most of all art I think.
Here is another favorite of mine-

The second is easier to access (for me).

The fundamental difference between the first and the second (for me) is that in the first the flowers are dominant, while in the second the flowers seem to be the canvas for the face. The hair amplifies the impact of the face.

Charlotte,

With the third of the series, more aspects of the two previous ones become visible.
Again - my view :)

The first could have the words overshadowed or obscured in the title, as the face is well dominated by the flowers.

The second is more about to be seen.

In the third, the aspect of hiding is well present, the image matches very well its title.

Best regards,
Michael
