Blueprint

There is something calming about blue and white with blue hydrangeas. The cool and smooth vase with the formal pattern is a good backdrop for the textured flowers. Elegance is the buzzword for the day.

Geranium Conversation

These two pots seem to be having a conversation about something. Of course that is a fantasy, although plants are living , we know that they don’t have human attributes! But it is fun to imagine what they might be saying to each other if they could speak.

Flower Power

This  acrylic painting is quite a different style from many of my other paintings. It is a more modern appproach but in a way similar to the pop art paintings of the sixties a la Peter Max. For this kind of painting I did not have a subject to look at;it all came from my head. Of course my head has been filled for the last several decades with thousands of images of flowers so there was plenty of material to work with.

Geranium Convention

i like this outdoors view of a garden table of geranium pots.It is an arrangement set in sunlight near a garden showing a variety of sizes of pots although the colors are the same. Geraniums are a favorite of mine; they are a sturdy summer plant capabble of withstanding the summer heat.
