I love life, people and my family! Painting has enriched my life so much and is fulfilling a dream I had as a little girl. I always had a pencil in my hand and dreamed of painting :) I didn't get started until I was 50 but boy it has been a wonderful journey so far!
My latest poppy painting which I have made into a card...check out all my cards on the sites featured along the side panel. I am really pleased with the results.

In this painting I tried to make it as busy as the poppies were in the garden. A riot of colour!

Schizanthus is also called Butterfly Flower or Poor Man's Orchid. I really like their delicate flowers..I tried to paint this loose and airy..

I have alot of friends that love to bake, make preserves, jams and jellies and I think they are a great gift to receive from them. I have created a sticker on Zazzle.com that you can attached to your item ...Made with Love from my Kitchen or From ... Kitchen, Made Just for you.
I think the stickers would be a great way to thank them back...and they aren't expensive..take a look.

What glorious summer weather we are having. The flowers are so plentiful and my garden is bursting with color. It is a good time to take reference photos for the grey winter days.
I have a Lily of the Nile opening right now and I really love them.. this one is blue.

My garden has lots of sweetpeas this year and so I sat amongst them and did this painting today.

I had to photograph this painting from the side because the flash just bounced off the gold and made it a blur. This is a piece of masks, music and texture. I call it Midnight at Mardi Gras
