Love figurative ...its what calls me. I have just started a blog myself and picked up 5 gerbera daisies a couple of days ago. Have been immersing myself in their splendor and exploring in whatever medium suits me. I had decided to buy a bunch of flowers every other week. have ordered siberian irises for next week. I was interested to see that you are also going this route. Will keep coming back to see what you are up to. If you're interested check my blog out. I just started it and have loaded four studio paintings and am adding an assortment of lifedrawings next. Will start putting weekly lifedrawings on as well. <br /><br />Happy paintimng, Trish Armstrong-Gibson, http://trisharmstrong-gibson.blogspot.com/Trish Armstrong-Gibsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10803827470752436941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7751652758250760060.post-70488510638501255962010-01-31T16:53:21.766-05:002010-01-31T16:53:21.766-05:00love your work...have followed it for a while...ha...love your work...have followed it for a while...have just decided myself that I will buy flowers every second week and immerse myself in them using whatever medium that calls to me and explore them in depth.

The Iris is magnificent! I don't know if you remember my name but we have shown in some of the same outdoor shows (Fest. of the Masters, etc.) Please don't get discouraged. These last few years have been difficult for all of us. Keep up the GREAT work.
