Tulip
The Tulip is another small acrylic painting, 12″ wide by 16″ high, which was created for my recently completed book. While the flower itself is an important part of the painting, the leaves carry a great deal of the interest in this painting. The curving forms of the leaves catching the slanting light invited my paint brush instantly.
This particular tulip actually managed to bloom in my yard one miraculous spring when the deer did not devour them all. I rarely have good fortune with my tulips so this one was certainly worth celebrating with my paints!
This painting is available at RiverStone Gallery in Ennis, Montana.To give as a gift or to enjoy for yourself, giclee prints of this painting are available.

your paintings are absolutely amazing. The one of the amaryllis stopped me dead in my tracks! keep up the good work!
