I felt the need to step out of the studio and into the fields today, and painted Spring Formal Pink and Red Poppies based on the bobbing and dipping fields of flowers in Fredericksburg, Texas. The weather was clear, cool and absolutely gorgeous in Flower Mound, Texas. Studio Director AnnieBee bossed me away from the easel on at least four occasions to throw her toy du jour. After a busy morning of packing and shipping paintings, it was nice to have a few moments in the garden to sit, breathe, relax, and share quiet time with my pugs. I wanted to share that time with you, too, with a photo of a surprise from my garden this morning. The rest of its brethren seem spent for the season, but this morning the one, glorious white lady stood tall among the red roses.

Poppies - I love these red flowers. When they are in bloom in late spring, they fill the roadside along the highway through my hometown with their splendid color peeking out from wild grasses. This painting gives an up-close perspective. Many colors in the grass and lots of texture set the perfect stage for these show-offs to shine against the gorgeous blue sky.
