An old painting I touched up.

 

“Peony & Hydrangeas”

“Peony & Hydrangeas”

Oil on Board, 8” x 8”

I painted this in 2016 but it bothered me…until I cropped it to an 8” x 8” painting. Now I love it! 

 

Five Zinnias in a Bottle

This took 2 days, and I’m exhausted! I grew these flowers several years ago, and never get tired of painting them.

Three Zinnias

“Three Zinnias”

These were from my garden, zinnias are the best!

Here it is, the good, bad & the ugly. I’ve been struggling with flowers for I don’t know how long. Happy with this one finally. :) I could keep painting on it, but I’m done.

Lace Leaf and Lemons

“Lace Leaf and Lemons”

Oil on Linen, 10” x 8”

I set this up for a Zoom session with my fellow Friday afternoon sketchers. Normally, we are pens and sketchbooks at the local coffee shop but since we are home during the pandemic, I’m painting away at my studio.

This 30 paintings is getting heady. But I finished this just in time to watch "Poldark" with my husband. I'm wiped!

Every summer I have a plot in our community organic garden. My success is uneven but the 'cut and come again' zinnias are always a success. I think they're one of the most beautiful flowers in eastern U.S.!
