I painted this watercolor from a couple of photos that we took at the beach at Harvey Cedars, New Jersey last summer.

One Christmas a friend gave me an Amaryllis bulb which bloomed beautifully at Christmas. I placed it with a begonia, also a gift, and some other plants in a sunny corner. The plants, beautiful in themselves, evoked precious memories of my friends o...

I created this piece in photo shop using a photo of the sun for the gold light and photo shop tools and layers. It is a symbolic picture of self juxtaposed to God and the universe and a play on big and small inside and outside.

These butiful stargazer lilies were a gift from my daughter when I was recovering from illness. I was feeling very thankful and painted them as an "act of praise".

 

I have always loved the crocus which is among the first spring flowers in my area . It signals the end of winter and the beginning of fresh new life and growth. This crocus blooms every year a few yards from my front door.

I was completely taken with the color of these brilliant yellow iris with the tiny purple flowers around them. Even the mackerel sky contributed to the feeling of softness.

This playful painting is from a tiny creatures view point, from underneath looking up at a profusion of tiger lilies and other flowers. The lilies remind me of little parachutes landing in the jungle underneath and I almost expect to see an elf or f...

Every July and into August tiger lilies bloom in profusion in my front yard. I really enjoyed the light and shadow and intense color of the lily and sky.

Once again there is a famine in Ethiopia and Kenya and many parts of Africa. Drought is devastating peoples lives and families. The mother and child in this portrait look directly at the viewer with a combination of dignity and vulnerability.

For some reason the color in this painting is not like the original. The painting was done in Photoshop using original watercolors and other scans. It irepresents the kind of destruction that is happening so much during our time. The bomb goes of...

I liked the bright red and yellow of the Gerbera daisies and roses in this autumn bouquet. The sunlight at the window made the vase luminous and I couldn't resit trying to capture it even though it was a very busy week and it lost a little of it's g...

I liked the long curling petals of these lovely lilies with their bright yellow orange centers.
