Clay Vase



Here is "Clay Vase," another in the "Bouquet" series. It is a small 8 x 10.

Garden Posies Series



This one is called, "Blue and Purple Posies." I used the same type of flower design as I use for my vase collection.

Big Flowers Finished



"Big Flowers" is finished! I added some black outline to the flowers. This something I do frequently. It is kind of funny how the color I mixed for one of the flowers is the exact color of the wall in the our living room--weird because it is an unusual color.

Big Flowers



This one is not finished yet. I am not quite sure where to go with it--taking some time to "mull it over." It is called, "Big Flowers" and it is part of my "Flowers of the Day" collection.

Tangled Trees



It is simple, but I really like this one.

Playful Kitten




Another in my "Flowers of the Day" collection. It is called, "Playful Kitten." This one would be great for someone who loves kittens. It would look very nice in a blue room.

Red at Dusk


This is another in the series "Flowers of the Day." It is called, "Red at Dusk." It is a small 8 x 10. I love the evening sky!

Blue at Dawn


I decided to try my skills with some dry brushing. This is one in a series called, "Flowers of the Day." I like the way this one turned out. Hubby says it is his favorite because he loves the vibrant colors.

Mermaid Sister Love

This is one of my mermaid series that started it all. I created these to decorate my place at the lake in a mermaid theme.

Mermaid Sister Summer

This is another in the "Mermaid Sister" series. All my mermaids are extremely happy--just as I am at the lake in the summer.

Mermaid Series Peace

This is the final of the mermaid sister series. Her name is Peace, as she looks so peaceful floating along in the waves of blue.

Jester Vase

This was my first flower bouquet. It is called "Jester Vase" and is part of my "Bouquet" series. My hubby said we won't need to plant any flowers for the summer if I contiune to paint flowers--I love flowers and these last forever!

Kathy's Bouquet

This is a flower bouquet I painted for a good friend just recently diagnosed with breast cancer. If you notice, many of the details I incorporated include the pink breast cancer ribbon in the flowers, vase, and border. It is part of the "Bouquet" series.

The Last Flower Standing

I wanted a red flower painting for my living my room. It was late fall and a beautiful sunny day. We'd already had several frosts, but as I looked out onto the patio there were still a few red flowers standing tall in all their beauty -- Hence, the title, Last Flower Standing.
