Queen Anne’s Lace, my favorite flower. Look for them in medians and abandoned fields near you.
“Blooming with Beauty and Grace”
Wildflowers Viewed Through the Veil of a Queen
I have a favorite wildflower. It is Queen Anne’s Lace! I am delighted they have popped up in my bluebonnet field. I don’t need to play slot machines because I have a North TX prairie to visit.
Traveling on Foot
“There comes . . . a longing never to travel again except on foot”. -Wendell Berry
Spring Under the Clouds
8″x4″ original oil on panel
As I painted this I thought “Oh Texas, You should always dress in wildflowers. They are so becoming on you!”
💕 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 healing.

I have always loved when my art reminds someone of a story. Thanks to those who have opened their hearts and shared their breast cancer stories. I am honored to hear stories about mothers, sisters, friends, and God Children, favorite teachers, choir members, neighbors, Aunts, and Grandmothers.
