I’m in love with colour and all things beautiful...

A flower represents the very essence of beauty.

Whether a wild flower dancing in a mountain meadow,

Or a velvety, red rose in a fragrant bouquet...

Flowers lift my spirit and make my heart sing!

A flower has it’s own unique character and personality,

And this is what I paint.

It is very much like painting a figure...

Perhaps a solitary soul bursting forth in radiant colour,

Or three sisters dancing...

There is a story in each painting.

With colour and shape the characters are created on canvas,

And the painting takes on a life of it’s own.

These were my thoughts when I asked myself ~ Why do I paint flowers?

I'm so happy to be a part of the upcoming exhibition ~ Bold and Beautiful at Cityscape Gallery in North Vancouver.

What is more beautiful than a flower?...
