Instant Gratification

6"x 6"   oil

For those of you that may have seen my blog post about my husband's recent hip surgery, it has been a constant battle to prevent dislocations--he's had 3 so far since January--which means many trips to the ER at the local hospitals. I haven't had much time to paint, but when I can I find that something bright and sunny like these wonderful, prolific flowers definitely cheers me up. I hope they have that effect on you too!

Spring Gone Wild

5"x 7"   oil

This is the enthusiastically blooming cherry tree next to the wall by the local post office. The wall is actually more of a sage green (the photo unfortunately came out much bluer looking) which looks great with the pink of the blossoms. If I can get a more accurate photo, I'll post it.

Red & White Camellias

4"x 4"   oil

When I commented on a friend's beautiful (and huge) camellia bush, she immediately cut me a bouquet to take home. I knew right away what I'd do with it--instant inspiration for a still life!

A Night To Remember

7"x 5"   oil

Yes, there are nights like this. My husband calls the shimmering reflective path on the water "the beckoning". It does seem to beckon one to fly up to the moon.

Amaryllis Joy

4"x 4"   oil

I love the bold, sculptural shape of the amaryllis. Its trumpet-like petals seem to be shouting for joy.
