Painting of the week

Thought it might be fun to paint with my dying peonies’ petals. I just find the petals so lush and quite exquisite.

    I absolutely adore peonies. They are my favorite flower and I have taken many photos with the macro lens of my camera of their luscious interiors. I loved your photos and the paintings. So beautiful! Thank you for sharing.

      Thank you so much Iris! I have no idea why I’ve just really “discovered” them, I’ve never really paid attention to flowers until buying bouquets for myself for the past year. They are just gorgeous and I feel so happy when they are blooming and I can smell them! So I thought, why not paint them? It’s so fun to get comments!
