Prairie Garden

ABOUT THE COLLECTION  June 6 Flowers In the Garden Collection I have always struggled with flowers. Both when it comes to painting them or caring for them. I adore other artist's depictions of single sophisticated blooms against a chic white paper or colorful backgrounds - but my paint brush instincts are too impulsive and crave more variation. I am a maximalist in art display and also in brush strokes it seems.    While on a walk with my best friends in Virginia it occurred to me to just paint the flowers - bursting with sunshine and color - and fill the paper with the scene! So these paintings have been a long time coming. Years of contemplation of how to accomplish something was suddenly inspired by long walks with friends and the bright colors. The result is a nearly fauvist delight in the colors of a summer garden.  ORIGINAL ARTWORK:  Each original painted has been painted on 140 lb French watercolor paper with a variety of high quality pigments that show off the brilliant color of each bloom.  Purchase  SIZING  24" x 18" PRICING Starting at $900
