I have always been drawn to hydrangeas, I love how soft they look but are still so striking. They are a fresh, simple flower yet I love the intricacy of all the petals; you only need about three to make up a full bouquet. They add a bit of beauty to any space and one of my favorite flowers to come home to. When my husband, Anthony, knows I had a bad day, he will bring me home a couple. He says he never sees me more excited than when I see him bring me some fresh beautiful flowers.
I chose to use watercolor in this first series because watercolor gives a unique softer, dreamy effect to a painting. I wanted the paintings to be pieces that you can place just about anywhere in your space. Also, these paintings are meant to be a soft reminder of the beauty found in this world.
God has created breathtaking things on this earth, including flowers and hydrangeas, and I am just so thankful that he gifted us with such beauty. I always want to portray the creations of our ultimate creator through my art and explore his works through color, shape, and motion.
