I have been excited about working on this painting. I had the vision for it when the Columbine were blooming this spring. They modeled for me and I sketched my idea in paint. With summer and all the activity that comes with it I have spaced out my time - eager to keep working on it. Red is my favorite color and the intense reds of the Columbine spoke to me. I wanted to make the blooms extra large to keep with the over exaggerated feel of my other Modern Scandinavian pieces. I made the bird small to make the blooms feel even bigger.
