"Petite Fleur"

Acrylic on Canvas 12x12

I painted this yesterday... instead of going to the river for a swim, I opted for a relaxing day on the porch to paint. Well - I started off on the porch but after battling gusts of wind for some time, I moved inside... The whole process was so distracting and agreeable, that I decided I really must paint more often... It's been years since I've picked up a paintbrush of the "artistic" kind.... This painting is of some lovely flowers that a friend gave me.

I never used to be interested in florals but lately I`ve found myself enjoying them more and more. My tastes are maturing I think, at least with the art I like, not always so much with the art I create LOL! Nice work Maja, I`m glad you started a blog!

I Love....

Honest and loyal friends, the warmth and love of family, a meal cooked with passion, a warm winter fire, my two lovely boys, my incredibly loyal little dog, other peoples art, an interesting idea, fresh flowers, a quiet reflective walk, the sound and smell of the ocean, the thrill of a great ride on a horse or bike, my Tiki cruiser, roasting marshmallows by a campfire, singing my heart out in the middle of nowhere, the breathless beauty and grandeur of horses, a sheep curiously looking you in the eye, exploring near or far, peoples stories, interior decorating and style, other people's individuality, freedom, trusting and being trusted, blingy things, artsty things, silky bed sheets, the wonder of nature, mucking out stalls, mushy romance, using tools, owning tools, building things, funny people, the sound of a pencil on paper, a deep sleep with good dreams, funky jewelry, great conversations, great _ _ _, doing not just talking, funny or beautiful greeting cards, handwritten letters via snail mail, a view, orange, maps and globes, being in or on the water, staring at the stars in wonder, sand between my toes, the warmth of the sun on my body, grasses rustling in a wind, the adventure that is life and so much more!!!
