Spectrum Series
This past week I had a bouquet of bleeding hearts keeping me company in the studio.
It’s of one my favorite flowers. I have so many I should say it’s my favorite flower of the moment. Watching them fade to pale pink and finally turn dusty lavender is so beautiful I wanted to show you.
And, I wanted to share this painting that I’ve been working on. It’s from the Spectrum Series, a group of 9 pieces…all different colors. I can’t say this piece is inspired by the bleeding hearts because I began it last summer. Yet, when I set my brushes down the other day I noticed how those pinks seemed to go perfect with it. There seems to me to be some similarity in the swirling shapes. I like finding these little connections and hope you do too:)
Hope you have a beautiful weekend!
“I know a bleeding-heart plant that has thrived for sixty years if not more, and has never missed a spring without rising and spreading itself into a grassy bush, with many small red hearts dangling.
Don’t you think that deserves
a little thought? ”
