Dahlia

oil on stretched canvas, 10”x10”

I love painting dahlias! They are challenging with so many layers of petals, but so delicate and beautiful. This dahlia has subtle pinks, tangerines, violets, and many shades in between. The light depicted in this painting makes it really pop.

Peach Snapdragon

oil on canvas, 12” x 6”, 2021

Snapdragons are another favorite of mine. I let them go to seed and spread in my gardens so that every year there are more and more. I love the wide variety of colors and the way they reach up like spires decorated by richly colored popcorn blooms. Bees love snapdragons and I enjoy watching them climb and disappear into each individual flower. I plan to make a larger snapdragon painting in the future, possibly with a bee.
