SUNDAY, JULY 12

"The Flower Show"

This year's crop of flower paintings is smaller in dimension than my usual size paintings. I purposely painted them smaller hoping to make them more affordable for everyone, during this "less is more" time in our country.

Studies show, that art is always important to our health and well being, especially during times of stress and uncertainty.

My painting style hasn't changed for the "The Flower Show" Series. The paintings are still bright and bold and full of color, and though smaller in stature, they are big, on hope, health and love.
