I wanted a lively painting, that would give the feeling of the blooms.   I always think of daisies, as cheerful, so I started by painting the ground with cad red.......lots of contrast!

A relaxing stroll down the shady sidewalks of historic Savannah. These window boxes caught my eye ... a little spot of color in a rare sunny spot on the sidewalk. This painting is done entirely with a palette knife giving it wonderful color and touchable texture.
