I like this one too. I am an art teacher, and I've just been teaching my students about the work of Georgia Okeeffe and how her flowers often flow off the edges of her canvas. It creates a very strong composition, and is very appealing.

It definitely adds sparkle to my day, which is soooo cloudy and chilly. Beautiful painting, Linda! Thanks for the smile!
I can see why this is one of your favorite paintings! So fresh and spontaneous. The petals look so delicate.

VANITY SOLD

I LOVE 'girl' things like lipstick, perfume, nail polish bottles, and pretty little compact cases. In this painting I was working for limited strokes. I would lay down the paint and leave it without manipulating it in any way. 6X6 inches oil Raymar canvas panel (Archival)

LITTLE ORANGE TEAPOT SOLD

Red Orange is another of my favorite colors. When I saw this great tea pot in one of the stores in town I wanted it right away. But, I thought and thought about it and when I went back to the store it was still there and I decided that it was mine! I am not a tea drinker but I have always loved the shapes and sizes and variety of design of teapots. In this painting I backlit the teapot with natural and studio lighting. I was experimenting with the changing values and shadow. 8X8 inches oil Raymar Canvas Panel (Archival)
