In about three months, #daffodils will be blooming again, and I can't wait. Painted this entirely from life, one stem at a time. Almost got all of the varieties I have in it.

This is wonderful.
I have a treasured drawing of daffodils from my dad’s beautiful garden.
Yours gives me all the same delight!

Thank you, it was crazy painting it, but absolutely pure joy having a studio full of daffodils. It smelled lovely.

Thank you for your lovely words. Being out in nature is very healing, but also just stepping outside and breathing the fresh air. I have a lot of houseplants because I love being surrounded by them. Wishing you a lovely Christmas. 🌼
