Channelling Flora Bowley

Spring in Central Park
Acrylics and gel pens on canvas
12 x 12

and Sabrina Ward Harrison, Mati Rose, Chrissy's gorgeous painted words, a love of NYC, the autumn colours surrounding me and the blossoming that is taking place with my painting at the moment.

I love this piece. Really, truly love it. I painted it over the Easter break before life got too busy and the blahs set in.

Still aiming to get back to the studio this weekend. What are you up to?

  1. I'm admiring that wonderful painting you've created. I love it very much too. The colours and the different strokes, the sense of movement. Nice one.

  2. what am I up too?
    Not a lot today, chef at work, its raining, Busy is sick and being very quiet which, although it sounds good, is worrying, I am already wondering what we are having for dinner... tomorrow morning tea at a frinds place and then a BBQ n the afternoon... in between playing with my new cameran and reading lovely blogs like yours! Have a great one Cathy.

  3. This is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! I love it and can totally see why you do.
    It has a slightly Japanese feel about it too. I adore that aesthetic.
    The blossoming is very you. Looking forward to seeing more.
