Lost in a Daffodil

Diana's daffodil, just painted.

Hi !! I couldn't help myself. This has been sitting on my art table. So I just stopped everything except of course the sip of coffee, and drew it and painted it. It's Fabriano  Hot Press 140 lbs. I love leaving the watermark of the paper on the painting. I truly seem to lose myself in the drawing and the painting, just experiencing the beauty of the gorgeous daffodil.. do I really have to go do the dishes now? love to each of you,Diana  I'm going , I'm going...

Painting with Plumber.

HI! I put the finishing touches on this watercolor yesterday. It was one of those hectic days. We had a plumber here and he was going and coming and in and out right in front of my art table. So I ended up putting more green leaves than I intended. But I like it and I'm finished, I hope. Ha ha.(I'll sign it in the morning.) Just got to finish the one with the magnolia,both paintings are due next Thursday. I do have to frame them but I'll wait and grumble about that later. You know how I love to frame! Have a happy evening. Take care,Diana

What Beauty We See!

HI, Look what I found,aren't they gorgeous!They were from Gran's yard. I asked my husband to look the other day and he said no I didn't see any flowers over there. It reminded me of the time I asked my son about the flowers at a wedding he was participating in. He said,"No Ma I didn't see any flowers.. there". I later asked a lady at church who had gone. She said," Oh Diana, You should have seen them. They had 2 fields planted of sunflowers on each side of the wedding.Flowers everywhere.It was glorious."But my boy didn't see them then, and neither did my husband the other day. ha ha.. It's what's important to each of us! ha, ha.

So I decided to put them in a mason jar and paint them. I've started anyway.They smell so good.-- I usually rearrange the flowers as I go to fit the composition. Do you do that or do you have it ready before hand? Talk to you soon.Diana
