Gerbera Daisies #7

Do any of you remember these when we were kids?  I don't...  Maybe they were hybridized or something, but anyway, I love them...

I DO have the traditional daisies in my garden, and love those too !

Daily Painting Again

Getting back into the Daily Painting BIZ.....Hopefully my newer style will show through. 

    Now, you know we can't go through life without distractions, but I'm going to stay focused, and not let them take over... ha ha !  That's what happens when you love to do EVERYTHING.... but I want to paint SOOO badly.... so, here goes.....

Day Two Hundred Thirty One

'Backyard Rhododendron"

6 x 6 oil on panel
75.00 + 6.00 s + h

Thought this blossom was so pretty out in my backyard. The bush is fuller with blooms this year than I ever remember in the past.
Had fun with family at the annual Laumeier Art Show for Mother's Day. Hope everyone had fun with their families !

Day Two Hundred Twenty Four

'Zinnias'

6 x 6 oil on panel
75.00 + 6.00 s + h

I found these at the Farmer's Market this morning. It was soooo cold, and I didn't have a jacket, so I had to look FAST, and there wasn't too much to work with... I was a little unsure, since these were such a deep maroon. I didn't know how well they'd read in the painting. I do like the resulting contrast, though.
