These flowers came from the remains of a flower basket given to my mother-in-law. She has been living for many years with Alzheimer's disease. Yellow was always a favorite color and her daughter remembered for her when she sent the begonia plant.
I picked the last few blooms as I liked the chubby little flowers.

Well I have been missing from my blog. I have been sick with a cold for a week and I hope the worst is over. Next weekend I am taking a workshop in Pennsylvania and will be doing a lot of driving so if I must be miserable I would rather it were this week.
Adding insult to injury I have not been happy with my paintings, so, most of them have been wiped away. This one survived! One painting that I wiped out, I did photograph and now I am sorry I was so harsh. Oh well, there will be others.

Last night I returned home late, after celebrating my oldest son's birthday. Unfortunately that meant I was a bit tired when I posted my note which in the light of day was a bit of a ramble. Sorry!

I am usually a day behind in publishing my paintings due to the fact that I have been relying on natural daylight for the photos and that is not always available to me at the right time.  I finally decided  that this was crazy and so I am treating myself to some new lights so that my images are less of a challenge. I had finished this painting yesterday but I was a little undecided about the fuchsia. I did ramp it up a bit, but only a bit. Anyway I do like this color so I left it glow in all its glory.

I was looking at the white cream pitcher and the white flowers.  As an artist I found it an interesting juxtaposition.

I decided to make this a bit larger. (I sometimes wonder if I will begin to think that  the world must fit into a 6 inch square! ) There is something so simple about a daffodil, and I wanted the image to maintain this simplicity.
