hollyhocks! acrylic

this painting has never really been seen or featured... although it remains one of my favorites. it reminds me of my bungalow now.. where i live.

it's strangely "old fashioned" in it's intent and execution.

i wanted to share it here... mostly because it reminds me of spring -- and that's what the first day of MARCH is all about !

Beautiful colours Carol. See you are bravely working away at the Italian show new pieces. All a delight. Thought I was known as a 'colourist' with all my bright flowers, but you put me to shame.

thank you joan,.... i am happy with this piece.... but i did it last year.. and no longer paint on birch board.
italy show is almost done. i will be exhibiting it in september. i wanted to make an april deadline.. but too many details of life/school/work/recession got in the way! best.
