Something about a bright red flower that just makes me smile. I am reworking some of my older works from decades past and I am really enjoying giving them new life!

You a rose garden, but I gave you one anyway. We have some beautiful roses growing on our property, but to be honest, they generally do not do well in Florida’s hot and humid climate. The previous caretakers of our home planted them and must have found the perfect variety for this area. They bloom most of the year except the hottest months. They always inspire me with their delicate fragrance and beautiful flowers. My goats love to eat the hips which I clip off for them to snack on. I’ve combined my love of mandalas with light pink rose petals. It gives a fresh gardening feel!

I went outside today to see if there were any flowers left blooming. In Florida we have a short Winter and then a handful of nice Spring days with bursts of color everywhere. The azaleas…….the bromeliads……and then it all dies………….9 months of HEAT. Not much grows in Summer except the grass and weeds. All of my irises are brown and crispy looking. The lilies look like beef jerky. But this little group of tiny dancers was still celebrating, so I snapped them quickly before the sun was full in the sky.
I will be in my studio painting now for a good long while……..expect some new acrylic work very soon!

I like to walk around with my camera just seeing what I can find. I love old buildings and garbage piles because often the most interesting photos are there. These beauties were growing proud all along an abandoned restaurant. They were not in neat little rows, but wild and rangy. They were large flowers, so I do not think they are weeds.
Do you know what type of flowers these are?

Wildflowers that is.
It’s Spring here in Florida and all of the beautiful flowers are in full bloom. We went out on a photo shoot this weekend and there were so many to choose from. Hibiscus and bougainvillea were plentiful. And the stargazer lilies were absolutely stunning! But as I was snapping away, I realized with a macro lens I can find beauty far beyond the typical floral fare. So I got on my hands and knees and started looking at the plants and flowers along the raggedy fences. The little “weeds” and scrubs had my full attention for the day. I was absolutely amazed at the beauty I found in these things we normally mow down and look over. It’s another world of magnificence!
The lavender specimen above revealed to me the most delicate purple hairs with dancing bursts of yellow rimmed in black. Seriously WILD! The yellow soft surprise below opened it’s inner world to me with a show of orange and delicate veins.
Nature: I bow to you in even your seeming insignificance. I no longer see “weeds” in my garden. 🙂

I am creating new original paintings for my upcoming show. I do a lot more digital work these days, so it is a nice change to go back to more visceral creativity. I am recreating some of my pieces from 9 years ago, but with a different twist. Unfortunately the camera I had back then didn’t capture my work well enough for large prints. But these can go as large as 48×60! Now that is big and definitely “Standing Tall”! Happy Sunday all…..
