Each spring my husband and I drive through the country to enjoy the wildflowers. We usually leave early in the morning and make an entire day of it. This particular painting is a combination of several places that we drove to. I loved the bright flowers in the sunlight, and the old wooden fence. The Hill Country around Fredericksburg, Texas, is absolutely stunning once the flowers bloom! This painting combines the brilliant colors of the flowers, with the peacefulness of the country.

I was inspired by two completely different summer scenes when I created this painting. One was a country ride that I went on in the Hill Country, and the other was from a group of gorgeous wildflowers that were growing. The painting combines both of these scenes together. “Summer” has the bright happy colors of summer wildflowers, combined with the peacefulness that you feel in a country setting. I was intrigued with the challenge of combining peaceful feelings with intensely bright colors when I painted this.

Orchids have always facinated me. They look so exotic that sometimes they don’t even look like real flowers to me. This one caught my eye at an orchid show that I went to. I loved the starkness of the white and the soft shadows that played on its petals. The petals reminded me of ruffles on a dress. In order to enhance the pure white of the orchid, I chose to place in on a black background. I like the contrast in this painting, and the way that it has a contemporary feel to it.

This painting was a piece that I painted for our son Christopher and his wife Rita. I named it “Wedding Day” because it has the colors of their wedding in it. The painting has flowers that bloom in the spring, which is when they were married. This painting combines the reds and purples that were sprinkled throughout the wedding ceremony. I chose the pale pinks to represent the softness of a wedding, and the reds to represent the passion of young love. The style that I chose is a combination of what Chris and Rita liked in two very different paintings. It is mid-way between the softness of Monet, and the boldness of my hard edge fantasy style. Chris liked the hard edge bold paintings, and Rita liked the soft impressionist style that I paint in. This painting brings both styles together for them.
