My mom sent me so many beautiful wildflower pictures yesterday. She lives four hours south of me, so her bluebonnets are just past their prime, while ours are are not quite there yet. I loved this pic of bluebonnets and a bee tree. The long grass reminds me of a school kid needing a haircut.
“Almost every person, from childhood, has been touched by the untamed beauty of wildflowers.” – Lady Bird Johnson
I took the wild beauty into the hospital today:).
The Indian paintbrush was beautiful under a blushing sky this morning.
It is a beautiful time to be in north Texas. The Indian paint brush is in full bloom!
“Some may wonder why I chose wildflowers when there are hunger and unemployment and the big bomb in the world. Well, I, for one, think we will survive, and I hope that along the way we can keep alive our experience with the flowering earth. For the bounty of nature is also one of the deep needs of man.” -Lady Bird Johnson
Sometimes not cleaning up your toys is a good thing! I failed to scrape my palette yesterday, so I decided to see if I could use that paint to do another study. I love them together and separate.
Come and paint glorious Texas wildflowers. Juliana will share her tips and tricks on creating a composition when there isn’t an obvious one, what specific colors she uses, and how to make good art from bad photos. This will be a FULL day, please plan to bring a brown bag lunch.

Please enjoy a celebration of pink paintings this month, in honor of breast cancer awareness. I paint for my friends and family who have fought the good fight against cancer, for their families, and for all caregivers who help along with the journey toward a healthy self (body, soul, and spirit). In my strokes of pink, are prayers of strength and heal. I keep a list of names by my easel as I paint. Let me know in the comments if you would like me to add a name to the list.
