May Flower Challenge Day Twenty-NIne • Inspired by a Palette and a Painting

I painted an abstract loose piece this morning as I am prepare for three shows coming up in June. I opened up my usual palette of green, orange and blue by adding magenta.

Magenta has been my new color of late. June is going to be a busy, crazy month.

My base painting which I find quite lovely on its own!

May Flower Challenge Day Twenty-Eight • A Walk in the Garden

Sharing my finds from a walk in the garden for day twenty-eight of the May Flower Challenge.

Since Spring arrived, mommy and son (my youngest ) take a walk in the garden to see what beautiful surprises we have for the day. This is our ritual every afternoon.

I get a new yellow dandelion every day, like clockwork.

Here is the dandelion of the day along with some other lovely surprises.

We have salmon-pink colored poppies, trumpet vine, white columbine,

baptisia and viburnum.

Thank you for stopping by.

I love this challenge not because I have a love for drawing, painting and printing flowers but it is an excellent way to build up your motif or reference library. It also keeps your drawing hand in motion and the creative flow becomes a part of your being.
