This rose is painted on a wooden plaque that is 6″X4″. It is based on photo I took in Elizabeth Park, Hartford one summer. The sun was just streaming through the pale petals and I just had to capture it! I think this underside view is so much more interesting than a traditional view! There is also a honey bee who has come to visit. |

Lilies and Petunias Garden Painting
These intense Petunias, Day Lilies and a Monarch Butterfly are painted on a 12″ square canvas. Although I rarely paint on canvas I did this one with the goal of capturing the cropped effect close up photos have. I have received a great many positive reviews on this unusual (for me) item. I have placed this painting in a wooden frame with a purple stain. It is available with or without this frame. Do you want to know more about this piece? Send me an email or leave a comment.

Hollyhock on Wood Slice
Old fashioned Hollyhocks are one of my favorite flowers but I can never seem to get them to establish themselves in my garden, so instead I painted one!! Painted in a hyper-realistic style, with sharp shadows, this flower seems to jump off the background. A bee hovers near by. This Hollyhock is painted on a slice of wood about eight inches tall.
