spring tulips

Today is the first day of spring and I am smiling ear to ear! And this painting is celebrating hope that spring and summer are a little bit easier and breezier and happier and lighter of heart. Because I sure could use a little bit of all those things!

This original 8"x8" oil painting on ¾" gesso panel is sold unframed but no frame is necessary for display as the sides of the panel are also painted. This one-of-a-kind spring celebration is available or $160 here.

heart lollipop

This was a colorful, simple and fun painting, plus I loved the challenge of capturing the look of the cellophane wrapper.

Here's another sweet treat that would look great right next to this one...

Stella De Oro Daylily

This was a painting that I thought was never going to put through. A total lost cause. A throw away. To be honest I even felt that way at the very last stroke. Now, with a new day and a fresh set of eyes, I think maybe I was wrong. It's really quite beautiful after all...art has a funny way of doing that sometimes...

Looks like Spring!

Crocus are a sure sign that spring is on it's way. Hurray! I find winter incredibly difficult to get through. I don't like the cold, or the darkness, not to mention it's so challenging to photograph my paintings when it's dark outside. It's best to photograph paintings in natural light. I feel thankful that having sunshine for my artwork is just around the corner...
