I don't know why I have such a problem. I love flowers. I grow lots of them and photograph them endlessly. But, I am posting these here to gain some insight into why I have such a problem painting them. The only idea that comes to mind just now is that I make them too complicated. That rings true, because I do it with lots of other things, too.
Poppies, I Think
Is thatSupposed to be a Lily?
Poinsettia Cruelty
Dark Lilies
This last one was for a Weekly Photo Challenge at Artist's Network and done from an incredibly beautiful photograph posted there. I actually like this one, some what. So, if I keep exploring, I may end up enjoying the process.
There are always those last 10 still lifes, too!

I like your Dark Lilies - less a sense of roughness, and more of depth projection... the colors are more appealing, too, especially with the dark background [if the first one had a darker one, say brown, would look better, I think]...
Your florals look good to me. I really like this last one!!!
