Life Intertwined •SOLD

 The interdependence of flowers, birds and insects is fascinating. Observing a hummingbird pulling nectar from a flower feels me with awe. With this painting I was trying to show the same hummingbird in motion as it drinks from a phlox bloom. 

Life Intertwined is a brushed acrylic ink painting on 140 lb. paper. This piece is professionally framed with conservation glass to a final size of 15.75" square. This piece is available at Peculiar Painter in Walker, MN. 

8" prints on steel and cards are also available. 

Modern Scandinavian Garden - Phlox Blooms *SOLD

The shape of Phlox works well to inspire a Modern Scandinavian painting. Little did I know, when I bought myself a white Phlox plant this spring, that I already had a yard full of lavender phlox. Inspiration was everywhere! 

For this piece I used a combination of teal, cobalt, pthalo blues and sky blue to make the background vibrate BLUE. The moving vines in the background are a rich red iron oxide. The iron oxide whisps were added at the end to give the piece more depth and movement. As with all of my Modern Scandinavian pieces - the shapes as well as color is intense and exaggerated.

Modern Scandinavian Garden - Phlox Blooms is a 40"x40" acrylic painting on stretched canvas with cross bars. Stretcher bars are 1.5" thick with painting edges. This piece will be available soon at Peculiar Painter in Walker, MN | 218-547-3729
