525 Anticipation

Grateful for this photo reference from Vicki Marx, taken in Churchill, Canada.  It was 13 degrees here today in Milwaukee, comfy for polar bears, but not for me.

409 Gladiolas

I am very fond of gladiolas because a favorite aunt grew them each year in one of her beautiful gardens.  She included them in expertly crafted flower arrangements throughout the house.  It always felt special to visit there---something I did for10 summers.  I know I did not do these flowers justice, partly because I spent too much time researching and categorizing my feather collection, which continues to grow, and not enough time painting.  I painted these from real life, and found them difficult to manage.

This painting is currently on 11 x 15" paper, but will be sewn on to a larger paper and matted.  I will update the photo  as soon as possible.

357 Call Your Mom

Happy Mother's Day to all the women of the world who are mothers or have ever been a mother figure to someone.  It's the most rewarding and underpaid job on earth, but so very important.
