Roses AND Foxglove



This beautiful bouquet of flowers filled with roses and rosebuds of pink, red, yellow, orange on a bed of rich green leaves. I painted the background in acrylic paint and the roses in layers of oil. The container is painted with Prussian blue and silver metallic accent. The color are bright and vivid. This painting influenced by french country, shabby chic, cottage chic,and folk art style. Be the one to take this little darling to your home or office. It would look lovely in any setting. Get it as a gift.

He is My Rose of Sharon

This was inspired by the idea of Christ as the Rose Of Sharon his sweetness, The Cross, his thorny crown and the Holy Spirit descending like a dove. I was also reading the Song of Solomon 2. That is a very passionate book. I have posted it to ebay this week. Rose of Sharon the plant is Hibiscus syriacus. It isn't a rose, but its large, flat blossoms and nectar attract hummingbirds and tiny insects that hummers also eat

Art as Therapy


I have been in the hospital and on bedrest for a while. I read a lot of novels, newspaper, watched TV and got so flustered at being still. I took out my paint brushes, my oil paints and acrylics and started painting what ever came to me.
I like canvas to paint on. I like that I can order canvas on line, but I even recycled newspapers by brushing gesso on to the pages. I hope you like my abstract rose and daisy bouquet.
