Daily Painting, Floral, "Blooming Dogwood" 6x8 SOLD

One of the things I love about the South is in the spring, when the dogwood blooms.  In North Carolina, the trees are impossible to ignore as the mountains are covered with them.

SOLD


My reference photo is of a tree in our North Carolina backyard.  The blooms seem even more alive against the blue sky and surrounded with gray leafless trees.


I wish I could bring this tree home to Florida for my friend LaVerne.  She is originally from Knoxville and misses her beloved dogwood.

CARMEN MIRANDA, REVISITED


Does anyone out there (besides me) remember Carmen Miranda? For those of you too young, she was a South American (I think) dancer who always had a huge headpiece of fruit. Pineapples, bananas, oranges, etc. towering over her head as she did a sort of koochy, koochy type dance in a very koochy, koochy type costume. Sort of a Las Vegas showgirl with a Latin twist. Get the picture?

Anyway, this is a 9x12 on masonite.





includes S&H in cont. US
