Unexpected

I've had this thought at the back of my mind for ages that I was going to purchase some peonies and do this massive scale photoshoot where I'd have more photos than I knew what to do with. Anyone who has bought them knows they're pricey so I finally went in and ordered some. 
Well, they weren't exactly what I had predicted (even though they're what I asked for). It was that they were all in full bloom. All of them. Not one was smaller, they were all the same size and colour. I was frazzled. 
I went ahead and took photos, stressed and came up with more ideas and compositions and every day, I hated them all. Finally three days in I managed to get some shots.


Needless to say, I managed to get one good photo at least and here is the result. I figured that I managed at least ten decent compositions but was so stressed that I'm going to be putting them away for a little while. They'll pop up here and there.

I really liked playing with the glass even if it was finicky.

Spring Rhythm

This is another one of my faves! It's a softer Spring piece but there is something almost musical about the flow throughout. The yellow flowers were trimmed from my rosebush out in the front yard. The rest of the arrangement came from Creekview Floral, who do amazing bouquets and arrangements.  "Spring Rhythm" 12 x 16 oil on canvas This one needs a new home!
