I took a workshop last summer 09' with artist John Pototschnik. It was very hard but good. He helped me out on this one 0by giving the Cedar Tree some needed finishing touches!
My desire is to enjoy God's creation while I paint. When painting fruit or flowers I notice how quickly things start to wither and fade. It is a clear reminder of the frailty of life. How a flower in a vase might change it's positon by turning or even dropping a petal. "Praise God", He never changes! His promises are true and sure. This perspective gives me an even greater admiration for my Creator and His beautiful creation.
I prefer to paint from "Still Life." It encourages me to finish a painting more quickly. I also take pictures to see how I am progressing or where I need to make improvements or corrections.
In my yard, I have many varieties of flowering trees and shrubs to choose from as subjects to paint. There is usually something blooming year round! I hope to capture "some" of what I see in my paintings and share with others.

Romans 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
