Mother & Daughter

I have been working on  a painting of the beautiful Itoh "Copper Kettle" peony my daughter gave me several years ago for Mother's Day.  It blooms with such exceptionally colored blossoms I had to try to capture it on canvas.
In searching for an name someone suggested, "Best Buds" and this seemed to be a reflection  our relationship.  I'm naming it for the two of us who have shared so many things and have laughed so hard so many times the tears rolled down our cheeks.  Love you daughter.

Fleur de papillon

My beautiful butterfly amaryllis bloomed this spring and I just had to use it for a stilllife.

So glad to find a frame for this.

Awaking

 

Mixed Media on 20 x 16 Canvas

Perhaps this Heron is:
Awaking to the dawn of a new day, or
Awaking to the start of a new season, or
Awaking to the beginning of the world.
This Heron arises with the sun and gives thanks 
for his beautiful place in the world.
