The idea here is for the beauty of spring tulips to be highlighted by the pleasures of a summer day in the tapestry behind them. The tapestry was painted mostly in acrylics, and the tulips in oil.
This piece is painted on all sides of the canvas and is ready to be hung up as it is.

A sincere thank you to the lovely person who sent me this beautiful cup all the way from the Met (NYC). The Met is home to the famous Vincent van Gogh painting "Irises" (1880). She must have known I would want to paint that cup with some flowers in it, and so I have.

Spring is here! You can tell because the spring flowers are blooming - the daffodils, crocus and especially the pansies. These pansies were on their way to the garden but stopped to pose for this little still life painting! The colors of a scarf hanging near by really compliment the hues in the flowers.

Nothing like thoughts of summer to chase the winter gloom away! Where I live, it seems like the apples and the the tomatoes are ripe at the same time - right as the sunflowers are at their peak. They make a wonderful collection on the kitchen table, perfect for a still-life painting.
This picture is painted on all sides of the canvas, it can be framed, but it can also be hung up just as it is.

Walking along the Stevens Creek Trail in Mountain View, the trees are dense and sheltering. The sun filters through the canopy and gives a dappled appearance to the shadows below. Beyond that, the sun is brilliant on the scrub grass and small bushes that lead down to the creek. In drought years like this, it is all rather dry.
This painting covers all sides of the canvas. You can frame it, certainly, but you can also hang it up just as it is. I'm happy to put a wire on the back.
