Sheryll, your painting caught my attention immediately.  The colors are beautiful and applied in a beautiful painterly way.  One issue is that the viewer's eye travels to the sky area and, therefore, out of the painting.  Maybe cropping out that area would definitely keep the viewer's smack in the painting where it was attracted at first glance. Again, I like it very much.

Lovely painting. A couple of things, however...the yellow flowers at the top of the painting attract too much attention away from those beautifully rendered daises/conflowers. Were you to soften that yellow, go much lighter, I think the focus would remain on the conflowers.

Also, it seems you've divided this painting in half with the center of attention directly in the middle. Lowering your focal point in future would make for a better composition.

You have a lovely way with watercolor.
