Oh, it's a classic. I have been using this image since 1997 for card sets; it is a favorite in the green ribbon set on etsy.  It is simplicity and joy; who couldn't love two yellow daisies? Still available as an original.

This piece is archivally matted to 12x14 for a nice presentation. This image, as are the other small florals, is part of "A Year in Bloom" a series of 365 paintings I created one year. Many of these images are available as blank cards, and I have 10 card sets (sets of 5 different blank cards) available on Etsy.

An update for my readers:

I am restarting my Daily Paintworks blog. After a recent workshop with Carol Marine, I have returned all refreshed and inspired! I will be posting some pieces that I have posted before, but these will be now available at auction for a great price! Some will be new works inspired by the workshop, and oil sketches done on location as I work plein aire on pieces that will become larger works in the studio. The works primarily posted here will be my smaller work. Larger work will now be available through my brand-new gallery. (No website yet at larkrisinggallery.com, but watch for it and e-mail me if there is a painting you were looking for.) The new gallery is called Lark Rising, and like that bird, will lift your spirits! It is in Rockport, MA, on Bearskin Neck in the Bearskin Neck Motor Lodge lobby.

Wildflower or weed? These were not planted but were beautifully placed in the yard at the St. Johnsbury Academy in Vermont where I was taking a summer course. This piece is archivally matted to 12x14 for a nice presentation. This image, as are the other smal florals, are part of "A Year in Bloom" a series of 365 paintings I created one year. Many of these images are available in blank cards.

These great sunflowers were in a pot in front of the garage in our house when we lived in Thetford, VT. I liked the way they looked with the stone wall and the grass behind them. They were the short kind that look great in a pot. This piece is matted with a 3" archival mat to 12x14. It is part of the series "A Year in Bloom", 365 paintings of flowers done in one year.

I saved the best for last. Well, maybe I can't say that; I have several favorites! This piece uses two non-typical horticultural items available at holiday time. This is one of a series of holly and poinsettias images from my "A Year in Bloom" series that I have used for years to make holiday cards from. I am finally willing to let them go. I think that will help me to make new ones next year! A purchaser will receive a few of the cards from the series as a gift. 

I am participating in the Hurricane Sandy fundraiser through Daily Paintworks. Artists donate a painting for auction and all profits go to Hurricane relief. I am currently looking for the best place to send funds and am open to suggestions.
The piece I am entering is now on auction. The minimum bid of $150 is far below the regular price of $470 so you are likely to get a good deal! The location pictured is at Colton Pond in Vermont, along rte.100 just past the intersection of rte. 4 and rte.100. A nice quiet and beautiful place to stop for a picnic! Long range views of the mountains and a very private setting. I was the only car there the day I painted this. It is a good sized piece at 12"x25"

Godetias are so lovely that they are even beautiful when they are fading away. I think the dark blue background perked them up.

I think godetias are beautiful flowers. Not quite a rose, not quite a lily but with the softness of the rose and the structure of the lily, and a delicacy that I love. I enjoyed doing these two with the various shades of white.

Everyone that paints flowers has to paint an orchid sometime. While my favorite are the more delicate and wild ones, like the "Nodding Ladies Tresses" that were near our pond when we lived in Vermont, I got this one at Valentines Day and painted it for my husband. But it's OK to sell it!
