NEW WORKS FROM THE STUDIO OF ART BY WENDY
DANCING IN THE SUNLIGHT - 7 X 10.5 - Watercolour
The sun has been shining lately, yes, it is freezing out but
somehow I can forget that when the sun shines.
It is a great inspiration for painting flowers dancing in the sun. My poppies in our front yard are a great source
for reference material; they are those great big ones in a lovely orgie-red
colour. I have photographed, drawn and
painted them numerous ways. I just never
get tired of their wonderful lines and shapes.
This is my latest. (Notice I even
changed their colour this time!)
Can you live without your computer? I wasn’t sure I could but I did find out this week. My son took mine for “an upgrade” for a few days, it turned into 6. Yes, I can live without it, had lots more time to paint and draw but I feel so behind with that other part of my life and business!! I can definitely say my computer is an important part of my art business, how about you?
This was an earlier miniature poppy painting that was one of my favourites: http://www.artbywendysblog.blogspot.ca/2009/05/great-news-with-my-miniatures.html
Long gone now.
As always, cards and prints of any of my work are available starting at $3.50.

So beautiful and vibrant Wendy - love it!!! :)
Beautifully done, Wendy!
Thanks Karen, I spent a lot of time trying to decide what colour to use for the background. Permanent Rose is not an easy colour to work with.
Thank you Studio at the Farm, I really enjoyed this piece and it has inspirited me to try a few more of my poppies.
Wendy this is a beautiful painting.
Thanks Gillian, I must admit it really gives a lift every time I look at it. Dancing in the Sunshine will be part of the Works on Paper Show, at the Federation Gallery on Granville Island for Feb. 5-17. I am going to miss seeing the painting each day!
