"Gold Flowers and Vase" wall hanging - something new!!

                       
     A little part of our backyard -                                        "Gold Flowers and Vase" wall hanging

Okay - I'm always looking for something new.  Here's the latest - outdoor wall hangings! 

This came about - as many ideas do - through an interesting evolution.  See the little bird painting on the left of the wall?  I did that soon after we moved to Kansas.  The masks are from Mexico and I wanted something another piece of art to hang with them.  So I took an art element of one of the masks and built a bird composition around it.  Love all these Mexican-influenced colors!!!!  (So - what else is new?)  ANYWAY - this bird painting has been outside for over 2 years, and it still looks terrific!!  So I thought - hmmm - looks like the weather doesn't damage these acrylic paintings IF they're not in direct sunlight.  This spot never gets direct sunlight but it does get the moisture, heat, freezing, etc.  It's protected from most of the rains, but I'm sure it's been wet in our many heavy rainfalls.  Still looks good!!!  Here's another part of the evolution of the wall hangings:  so many people say they're out of wall space - but I bet they have a spot outside to add a splash of color in their patios/garden areas!!  And often people are willing to have more "fun" art in an informal garden setting.  I know I'm loving this big big floral in my own patio area.  Get the picture?????? 

Sooooo - here you go.  This is the first of several wall hangings that are my "summer special!"  The price is VERY good for a large painting - no stretching or framing involved and I'm doing loose, fast, fun paintings.  Of course these may be hung inside, too!  I'll even customize the colors for you.  How fun is this!! 

After a long stretch of VERY hot and humid weather, it's finally beautiful outside.  One more thing about these florals - they don't need to be watered!!!  And they stay bright and colorful in any weather! 

Hope you're having a beautiful day -
