Happy May Day! 🌷✨

 





While the tulips at home have finished their dance for the year, I’m still feeling so inspired by the vibrant colors I captured during my last visit to Descanso Gardens.


A bit of floral inspiration—and a little peek at what’s currently emerging on my easel! 🐸πŸͺ·


This is a very early look at "The Lily Lurker," part of my ongoing Huntington Hollows series. He’s a small study in water-soluble oils, and right now, I’m letting that golden gesso foundation do the heavy lifting before the final layers of green and petal-pink take over. He’ll eventually be housed in a lovely round frame to match the curves of his garden home!


May your month be full of new growth, fresh color, and a little bit of garden magic.


What is blooming in your corner of the world today? πŸ‘‡
