Smells Like Butterflies

Smells Like Butterflies
8 x 10
Oil on Hardboard

SOLD!!






I was anxiously watching my lilies of the valley for that first bloom.  When they bloomed this week I picked one and had my grand-daughter smell the perfume of the flower.  After smelling it she said. "Mmmm, it smells like butterflies"   Isn't that precious?  Out of the mouth of babes.

I was so anxious to paint this flower, but I quickly became enamored with the beauty of the leaves.  So many graceful curves and beautiful colors.  



Here is how it might look framed.
