I've just completed the Artquest 30/30 and all thirty paintings are uploaded into my virtual exhibition here on Artavita Space. The exhibition will be running until mid-March. Here's a snapshot of what I've been creating:
Merrily mingling, all happily swanning round the flower bed, petals and leaves gently fluffed up in the breeze. It's a time for celebration, their buds have all opened in synchronicity and they're simply delighted to be together, discovering the beauty that each other have bloomed into being.
Blushing in a variety depths of pinkish hues, these blooms feel like they've opened quite by accident today. No-one told them that the sun would be shining quite so merrily, and these lovelies have found themselves literally 'in the pink' in all senses of the phrase.
