I have donated this painting for the upcoming Beaux Arts dinner and silent auction to benefit the Scottsdale Artists' School to be held on November 11th in Scottsdale, AZ.

It's a fun evening!... with lots of artwork to enjoy and take home!

'Yellow Peonies'

The blooming season for yellow peonies seems to be very short... at least from a painter's perspective. And they certainly don't care to bloom anywhere in Arizona. At least I've never heard of peonies blooming in Arizona. It's a pity.

As such, I was very happy to find these yellow peonies from the local florist... very happy.
It can be tricky to find them and I needed to finish up this painting begun last year.
I think yellow peonies are really beautiful... extraordinary.

There are some David Austin roses from the garden in this mix, too. They have been exploding with blossoms lately... happily blooming in Arizona.

... fresh Peonies are such a treat!
How I wish it were possible to grow them in Arizona!

Endearment… again!

I decided to work more on the last painting… so here is the finished painting, for real.
I think it is much improved… just like my friend will soon be.

A little painting for a friend who has been going through wretched chemotherapy. She can't receive fresh flowers so when I found her favorites at the market, they became a gift in a painting… pink peonies!

I am usually swamped in May and the beginning of June when the peonies are in bloom... and am unable to get in the studio to paint them with any time! This year was different.
And I'm so glad they are available here... through the markets.

But that's about it now for peonies... until next year!

Peonies... glorious peonies!
And every year I want to paint them, but haven't...  for many reasons. Not the case this year!
