This is a detail of a mini sketch from a new series I am beginning. Every winter I tuck myself away in my studio and birth something new for the year. It is joyfully challenging to include my favorite subjects; flower gardens and my daughter. Stay tuned... I'll be posting others soon.

    Hi Tina,
    Thank you for your nice comments. Sometimes I like showing details because I love how the paint mixes on the canvas. Also seeing the brush strokes are exciting to me!

    I thought of Charles W. Hawthorne and what he says about not painting every feature on a child wearing a hat that is shaded from the sun. Your painting is a beautiful example of what he was talking about.
