One word.... IMAGINE.....
What an incredibly wonderful word...
something we, as artists, do every day - don't we!!!???
With this flower painting...
it was easy for me to IMAGINE ...
~ being in a beautiful garden...
~ having this "bouquet" in my home....
~ wearing a flower with these vivid colors in my hair....
~ being in a beautiful garden...
~ having this "bouquet" in my home....
~ wearing a flower with these vivid colors in my hair....
~ on a tropical retreat, just after an afternoon rain, when the flowers are most brilliant and a great array of fabulously colorful butterflies surround this flower in full splendor.
Or perhaps best of all...
~ being a lady bug crawling in the deep folds of each of these velvety colors... inhaling the sweet fragrance - enjoying the cool protection of the layers of the flower swaying in the breeze... :)
