This painting was inspired by a beautiful bed of white phlox at the McCall farm.  I never grew phlox in Bakersfield - not sure if it grows in that heat or if I just didn't know about them.  They're gorgeous now in Kansas - either white or sort of pinkish purply (??) like the bed next to this one.  I plan to include them in my own yard to bloom this time of year.  I'm taking an inventory of what blooms when - so I can have lots of color most of the year.  In California, we had something flowering all year long.  I think I'll have to just enjoy the snow during parts of the year here.  You know - there's actually a lot of color in snow.  Subtle - but it's not all white.  (Okay - that's a stretch!)

This is painted in the new, more sophisticated style with oils.  I feel like I'm learning so much - I don't have much experience with oils.  This is fun!

Take care and have a beautiful evening.
