Busy November

My apologies I have been extremely busy this November. It seems I can not get enough done and I'm behind the eight ball with every shot. I am finally getting around to getting these new pieces up.


"Thriving Nightshade" Acrylic on Canvas 12"x12"
This is Horse Nettle or Carolina Nightshade. I found it interesting that some blossoms were in bloom and others seemed to be reluctant to come out in the dusk.
This is available today!


"Reverence" - Acrylic on Canvas 12"x12"
This sunflower seemed to be bowing in reverence in the early morning sunshine, thankful for the new day. So I named it "Reverence."
This is available today!


"Puckering Poppy" - Acrylic on Canvas 14"x14"
This little lady looked like she was ready to blow you a kiss so I named her "Puckering Poppy."
This is available today!


Chicory at Noon - Acrylic on Canvas 12"x12"
Chicory seems to thrive in almost any condition. This blossom had so much character that seemed to offer promise of a great day. A little trivia: Native Americans boiled the roots to make a wash for fever sores and steeped the roots to create a nerve tonic. (from the KSU wildflower website.) You know we could all use a little nerve tonic once in a while.
This is available today!


"A Part of the Crowd" - Acrylic on Canvas 12"x12"
This sunflower bobbed and weaved and made it difficult to get a good record, yet I was able to make it successful. In the field that I was working the monumental crowd of sunflowers was awesome. And you could hear the whispers of anticipation for the day while they waited for the sun to show over the nearby tree ridge.
This is available today!
