I did it, I got up early enough this morning to paint the hollyhocks I drew yesterday! They are dancing for you and with you! Enjoy their happy faces!

Oh yes, I am enjoying them. I think they are unbelievable plants, and the painted version here is lovely. Spring has given us a few sunny days, but still cold and windy, so I really look forward to seeing some more floral brightness in all the gardens around us soon.
ReplyDeleteJez, thanks ever so much. I've not doubt spring will bring you blooms soon.
DeleteAww, I thought this was going to be a good one...and it is :-)
ReplyDeleteAww, Ann! You are too kind! ;-)
DeleteWow,this is beautiful,realy great work.
ReplyDeleteGreetings Jeannette
Thanks you so much Jeannette! Much appreciated.
DeleteOh yeah Lynn! I love your painted version. Love them both but this rocks. It's a reminder to me to closely look after my hollyhocks, they liven up the garden as yours do the screen. Have a wonderful day, you artist you! tee hee.
ReplyDeleteThank you Gloria! Do tend your hollyhocks! They will bring gladness to your garden too. ;-)
DeleteHow fantastic that they are so tall and blooming. Beautiful painting.
ReplyDeleteThanks Fran, not blooming this year yet, but soon. These are from last year in my yard from the photo I took of them.
DeleteI love it!!! Hollyhocks are so pretty and you did such a wonderful, colorful version of them. I just went back to your other post which I hadn't seen yet to see it just in ink. Great job, Lynn!
ReplyDeleteThanks Joan. Glad you like both.
DeleteLove both. They sure look different. Wonder if mine will reseed and come back.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea why they wouldn't unless your birds and chicks at all the seeds! ;-) They naturally scatter /drop so many seeds when the flowers dry out. Sometimes I'd collect them and spread them to other areas in my yards. But for the most part they just regrew where they were growing the year before. I didn't do anything special at all. Glad you like them.
Deletewhat bright hollyhocks and brightens my day! Thank you Lynn!!!!
ReplyDeleteAlways happy to bring light into someone's life with my art!
