I enjoyed doing this painting and can't wait to frame it. I haven't felt that way about my art for a long time. These are almond blossoms, painted from a photo taken by Roger Brown. Thank you Roger.

Jeremiah 1:11-12 "Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree. Then said the Lord unto me, Thou hast well seen; for I will hasten my word to perform it."

Apples

For our Watercolor Workshop group on Yahoo - we painted from the same photo in October. I used my artistic license and added a tablecloth that wasn't in the photo. I think I could do better, but for now will let it rest.

"Grace"

I am happy to post this floral, I had such a great time working on it. My thanks go to my friend Peter Nyllet for graciously allowing me to paint this; when I saw the photo I was drawn to it.

Blown Away

When Maureen said that she was "blown away" at seeing these flowers, I decided to name them that because these wispy flowers wave and dance in the wind. They can be quite tall so they have strength in numbers to keep them from being totally blown down (much like us). Credit to Vicki G. for the photo.

II Corinthians 5:17

"...old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."

Thank you Doris G for the use of this photo!

Hebrews 4:12

To be transformed as the butterfly delicately becomes a thing of beauty so the Word of God divides us, soul from spirit. The root meaning of "divide asunder" metamorphosis is the same process the butterfly goes through.

From Vicki G's photo; thank you Vicki, this was fun to paint today as I painted and watched it snowing outside my studio window one more time on April 12th.

Blue Pansies

My tribute to spring, maybe painting some spring like subjects will warm me from the inside out because it does not look like spring yet here in Minnesota.
