Iris Imagined

I have iris bulbs in my front and back yards. I've seen them in snow and in terrible storms...they are hearty! I save them as dried stalks and add them to fresh flowers. Always a fan!!

So happy you liked this one. I've had purple iris in my garden for fourteen years and I just love their complexity and beauty! Thanks for the vote too!

So happy you like this one. It was one of the first in my imaginary flower series...when I learned how to push acrylic about with the side of a credit card. So exciting to see what develops!

Again, I think I'm using Payne Gray and quinacridone gold...and others. Thanks, Bill. I'm out on a stem inventing my own flowers....

Many thanks, Barbara. Iris are one of my favorite flowers....so complicated in structure....I just invented my own version of them!

thanks, Sorin for this nice comment. I love creating imaginary flowers...and this abstracted iris was fun to paint!

Thanks, Lenore. I have such a nice bed of iris and I'm always bustling about, enjoying every stage of their quite considerable display. Even have some dried ones inside this winter....!!

I'm so happy to have you visit my art. You have so many imaginary flowers and vases....so creative. I appreciate all of your lovely comments!

How nice of you to come looking at this one. These imaginary flowers were the first things which really got me back into painting....especially using a credit card or a sharp edge to keep it from getting too tight.

Thank you, Brooks. I just stopped by to see your lovely paintings!!!

Again, my thanks for your lovely comments. It gets me back to the drawing board!

Thank you so much, Jeff. I think I may just go back to this "art" because it's wildly fun and I don't see anyone out there imagining flowers which don't really exist...except in the wonderful world of acrylics.

So happy you liked this one, Omar. I enjoy your creative spirit and your wonderful art!

Thank you so much, Jose for your comment and vote.

Thanks so much, Marlene. This just popped up and said...Hi, I'm an Iris!

Thanks so much, Kathy. I had a garden full of iris this year....I miss them already.
