1107 Gathering of Like-Minds


 I love the way Cosmos are such delicate flowers and yet have a mind of their own, bending their stems every which way.  The reference photo for this painting was provided with permission by Holly Ann, a fellow member of the Chicago Gardeners Facebook Group.  I love painting white flowers, and paint them every chance I get, each incident being a steep learning experience.

I hope you like it.

1106 Afternoon Stroll




 I wanted to give another shot at the white and yellow flowers, as I wasn't thrilled with 1105 Morning Walk.

1105 Morning Walk


 

Even the weeds or wildflowers make a walk on city streets more enjoyable.

1104 Forget-Me-Not


 Forget-Me-Nots are one of my very favorite flowers.  They are small and humble, but their beautiful blues capture my heart.  This summer, I grew Chinese Forget-Me-Nots in my rooftop garden, and they brought a beautiful compliment to all the pinks, oranges and yellows of the other flowers.

1103 Let's Sit For Awhile


 Here is one last painting of zinnias from my garden, painted from life.  I struggled with the chair color, auditioning several different colors.
