Columbine Dancing with the Ferns •SOLD

 While out for a walk, this Spring, the sun hit a bundle of Columbine in the forest. The color sang and I ran for my camera. I didn't realize it at first but the ferns were dancing around the blooms, giving the flowers an even happier feel.

Modern Scandinavian Columbine Blooms •SOLD

 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. 

 Modern Scandinavian Columbine Blooms is an acrylic painting on stretched canvas with painted edges and cross braces. This piece is available at Peculiar Painter in Walker, MN.  | 218-547-3729

Native Columbine NFS

These little beauties modeled for me as I sat on the steps of my back porch. Their amazing architecture and soft color are something to behold. I'd love to do a series of the macro elements that make them whole....or even a bigger overview of a whole cluster of Columbine. Plant life is amazing!
