Description
This vivid painting of an orange azalea in full bloom is actually a cluster of small blossoms with drops from the morning dew. It's a bold statement of a beautiful subject as it unfolds to embrace the day.
For the past year I've been painting flowers up so close that they envelope the viewer in their sensuality and rich color. Enlarged, they become almost abstractions from nature without seeing the outer shape or the environment around them. This vivid painting of an orange azalea in full bloom is actually a cluster of small blossoms with drops from the morning dew. It's a bold statement of a beautiful subject as it unfolds to embrace the day.
In 2012 I qualified to be a signature member of the Northwest Watercolor Society (NWWS). This is earned by being juried into a select number of local chapter and international watercolor society shows sponsored by NWWS. The initials now follow my signature on recent watercolor paintings.
In 2016 I was selected as the poster artist for the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival.
