Last of the Summer Flowers
Literally my last vase full (old family vase) of the summers flowers from my garden 2023. I love sewing flower seeds and growing them on. Only the pink striped ones were my homegrown flowers. Needless to say I thought they were a worthy bunch to try painting. This is my first floral painting. I did study Fine Art many moons ago. After a loooong break I’ve been back oil painting for nearly 3 years now. I’m a member of HVAF and show my work through their exhibition opportunities and through Mardleybury Gallery, Datchworth. My main work theme I continually return to is fungi and the woodland floor. Identifying fungus is a bit of a fascination …but I won’t dig them up to do so!! Other areas of art interest are drawing and printing, my favourite there being mezzotint.
