Lia Melia This is a very clever piece of work karien; I really like the cut out form and the shadows of the tulips; beautifully achieved in it's contrasting tones and simplicity.

Chris Aerfeldt I love your work too!!! Really interesting images and lovely palette
By the way I was in Bruges a couple of weeks ago - my first visit. I am in love with Bruges. What an AMAZING place. The Groeninge Museum is to die for!

karien deroo Hi thanks Chris!!
I'm glad you had a nice stay in my town!
yes Bruges is fantastic, I did my first studies in art in Bruges and now I am back to live here, almost 3 years and I love it! the town is one great museum of art and history!

Venetia Gazila The project is exceptional because it has a dual perspective, with the positive and negative emotion, with subtraction and realism in the representation and clarity in the message.

Maria Amelia Sanchez Produce escozor al observarla. Notable obra. Arriba se consume y abajo surge la esperanza con la flor del tulipan. Felicitaciones!.

karien deroo I've just arrived back home from a week holiday in spain! and I see the jury voting is still on (had no internet at spain), so it's still exiting...
thanks for your lovely comment Venetia Gazila!
and also thanks to Maria Amelia Sanchez, I think it's a lovely comment too, but I can't read it...anyway thanks Maria.

Tatiana Bezjak I like your playing emphasis visible - hidden - revealed.
Good luck!

Bernd Hoppe It is a reduced, but great staging. An image that doesn't let me go. There are some secrets in this picture, in the view of the child. I'll see it more often, very good work, Karien!
Good luck!

June 29, 2011 at 1:41 pm
karien deroo thank you Tatiana and Sandra!
and special thanks to Bernd, yes they are secrets in this picture, maybe...I let it over to the viewer, don't say much about this work, so it will stay a secret :-)

Lia Melia Well done; you did so well!
July 4, 2011 at 1:18 pm
karien deroo thanks Lia!!
I had a very nice mail from saatchi that I am placed second in Showdown, my artwork will go on to be displayed at the Saatchi Gallery in London, and a Saatchi Online staff member will be in touch with me shortly to discuss my prize.
So great I thought!!
but when I looked at the results of the showdown here on the site, I saw 2 different names, not my name or my work.
So, what do I have to think now???
Is this real or is this a mistake?
July 4, 2011 at 2:44 pm
Niki Hare stunning work, all of it, this should have won!!
September 8, 2011 at 7:33 am
