Dutch Treat

 I love black parrot tulips so much that I grew some of my own just so I could paint them. This background isn't William Morris, but is an anonymous fabric swatch I've had forever and have been too precious to use in actual sewing. So I thought I'd paint that, too! The little Dutch windmill vase I found at a charity shop and it felt like a perfect pairing.

Tulpenmanie

I've always been curious about the tulip mania in The Netherlands during the 17th century: the dramatic tales of connoisseurs and collectors and cash-grabs, the spectacular boom and bust of the bulb bubble, and the fact that the beauty of the most prized variety, the Semper Augustus, was the result of a virus that eventually killed it. The possibility that some or all of these accounts are apocryphal only piques my interest all the more -- tulips bulbs were used as currency, and the stories about them grew and spread and mutated over hundreds of years.

Anyway, here's some gorgeous falling-down tulips I painted for my solo show at Rona Painting Gallery in Jericho this summer:

Brighter Days

I tried to keep the brushstrokes loose and unfussy in this one, focusing more on the light and colour. Is there anything more lively than pink and green? A bright painting to keep you going through the winter.

Narcissus

 The white blossoms looked so stunning against the charcoal grey wall, especially with that dramatic shadow. Loved playing with the transparency of the petals.

Me, Myself, and I

I get completely lost painting peonies... it's like falling under a spell.

 

I love the movement of this trio, how they go from bud, to blooming, to exploded. The drama of those petals!

I got this bouquet for my birthday last year, and it was so delicate and romantic that I took a bunch of pictures of it so I could paint it later...
