Have you been trying to not think about roses encased in ice?


Or maybe you're glad not to be in the "hot-seat"?


Maybe you're like me, and ready to wave good-bye to winter?

Surround yourself with warm colors, and things like sunflowers and citrus - one perfect antidote to winter!

Bloom Your Heart Out!

12"x12" oil on archival panel
Click here, for more information, or to purchase.

This little orchid has been the most encouraging little plant...and one incredible orchid.  It has re-bloomed so many times for me, I've lost count! Seems like one bloom shoot is over, and it's putting out another one, bringing beauty to my winter world! Which does wonders for my happiness! 

Keep a smile blooming on your beautiful face - you'll bring happiness to everyone you meet today (wonderful person that you are!).

Instant Sunshine Sunflowers!

5"x5" oil on archival panel
To purchase, or for more information, click here.  

You know the kind of day...when it looks like this:
Your lavender dreams are months away, buried in a winter slumber....
Snow has begun to blow sideways, and catches in the bark of all the trees....
Warm colored river birch bark ruffles in the winter wind, snow catching in its elegant sleeves....
Each tiny flake accumulates, and joins forces with countless others, giving weight to the grasses; together bending what one single flake could never do

and keeping even the most agile
from flying. 
Those are the days, you want that instant sunshine, the glow of sunflowers to brighten the longest snow storm.

Zinnia Party

6"x6" oil on archival panel, $150


This week I've been working on a larger painting of our zinnia garden. It really bloomed to abundance this year! Today I had to wait for the sun to come back out before continuing on it, so...I just cut a bouquet to bring inside and paint!
