1026 Distant Cousin

 Having a soft spot for black and white stripes and polka dots, I was thrilled to find the two black and white cups and saucers in Florida.  The composition was a bit tricky, but the addition of the die made me feel better about it.

992 Party at Goldilocks'

 These teddy bear sunflowers and hot peppers from the farmers' market were so fun to paint from life but the background drove me crazy for nearly two weeks.  I tried every color I was sure would work.  Finally I gave up.

974 Sunflower Polka

This is another painting inspired by a splat of black paint.  I added more polka dots for drama.  I thought the sunflowers look like they are dancing, except for the stuffy one who is sitting it out.

960 Forget-Me-Not

I love the color blue and so when I "saw" the teapot in the paint splotch, I jumped on the opportunity to feature this cool and calming section of the color wheel.  There are very few truly blue flowers, and they are some of my favorites.  Forget-Me-Nots are the sweetest little plants, Brunnerra's flowers are very much like Forget-Me-Nots but have much larger leaves, and of course Delphinium, which I have not had luck in growing.  As an artist, I'm allowed to create my own blue flowers.  So there.
