"Bashful Blooms" Original Oil Tulips Painting by Hallie Kohn

They have every reason to be shy. The morning sun was just waking them up when I snuck up with my camera to capture the amazing light. I think they may even be blushing a bit.

Daily Painting, Floral, "Red Hibiscus" 6x8" SOLD

Hibiscus is one of my favorite flowers.  They are very tropical, hula girls always have them behind their ears, and they come in a variety of colors and sizes.

Purchase here
SOLD

This is a common type that I found planted behind the Eau Gallie Library.  I went there early one morning on a photo shoot, looking for stray pelicans and egrets that usually hand around the fishing pier behind the library.  No birds in sight.....also no fishermen.  I was just about to drive away when I noticed the flowers, turned to the morning light.

So, it was not a wasted trip after all.  It is always a wonderful feeling to be out in nature in the morning stillness.

"Sphinx Hummingbird Moths" Original Palette Knife Painting by Hallie Kohn Art

This painting was done as a request from one of my sons. For the past two weeks or so these moths have been visiting our zinnias. We all run out to watch them up close and I captured some amazing photos with my I-phone of all things. They look so much like hummingbirds, but even smaller! For a while it was one at a time, but then two would appear together. I was thrilled with this photo, and the memory of my little guys being so intrigued and excited by them. Love capturing special moments like this in a painting!

"Trumpet Vine" Original Palette Knife Painting by Hallie Kohn Art

These gorgeous vines are a sight to see! Long ago I wanted to plant one in my own yard, until I learned how powerful the vine is. I've seen them growing on tipped fences, bent posts, and even up trees. You would need a pretty stable structure to withhold the strength of this vine.

This painting just flowed so easily--love when that happens!

"Zinnia" Original Palette Knife Painting by Hallie Kohn Art

Every year I plant the giant size zinnia seeds by our front entry. It's great to have that color last into early fall and fun to see what colors come up. Besides that, the butterflies love them.

Pick of the Day by Pamela Blaies

Bashful

6" x 6"

oil on linen panel

This red rose came from my garden. I placed it in the bud vase facing away from me, because I liked the way the leaves turned. It almost looks shy, so I named it Bashful. I was excited that yesterday it was chosen as the Facebook Pick of the Day by DailyPaintworks - Yea!

Sometimes Less is More by Pamela Blaies

Red Rosebud

6" x 6"

oil on linen panel

I found this rosebud in my yard on a rosebush full of blooms. I was tempted to add another rose to the composition, but sometimes less is more and this was one of those times. I love the elegance of this painting.
