The weather is glorious! It has been such a busy week delivering work for framing and to galleries. In fact I have been out almost every day with brilliant appointments and exciting meetings all connected with showing my art. I took time out to paint flowers in my garden this afternoon. I have been reading my own book and strangely learning so much from each chapter which sounds really peculiar as I am the author! But I am going through each section and it seems as though "light bulb" moments occur each time something triggers an exciting idea I wish to put on paper. When I wrote my book I was hoping to inspire other artists. I feel a little wierd saying that I have inspired myself too!
So in sunshine, I stood at my easel in my garden and observed how the colours played on white phlox flowers.Their beauty is undeniable and I just had to capture them in watercolour. These have left me with a yearning for tomorrow morning to arrive so that I can capture more beautiful flowers from life to add to my Summer 2012 collection of watercolours. Summer passes so quickly and I d not wish to waste a minute of it.
Here is the full painting.
