Over The Hills

     Hello Folks.  This is a framed 12" x 14" watercolor and ink painting I did to satisfy my need to paint poppies.  It makes me think of The Wizard Of Oz.  I enjoyed imagining being Dorothy as she skipped along in the Land of Oz. 
     It is for sale for $35.00.  Please contact me if you would like to purchase it and escape into the Land of Oz where everything is so bright and happy.  Thanks for stopping by.

Poppin' Poppies II

Good morning to you all. Poppies are one of my favorite flowers to paint. They seem so proud - long stems, topped by open and inviting blooms, standing tall among the grasses and other flowers around them. Viewing a field of poppies, the wind creates waves that ebb and flow resembling the the tides and movements of an ocean or a river. Nature presents us with patterns showing that certain shapes, themes and colors are repeated over and over. There are shapes, patterns and colors repeated in our own lives, perhaps by actions or even fashion choices. What is your favorite color? Is it blue? If so, does a blue sky draw your attention? Are your eyes blue? How many shades of blue are in nature? We are part of this planet and we do contribute to it in our own way. Thanks for tuning in today, go out and contribute!
