Daffodil day

April is daffodil month for the Canadian Cancer Society. The volunteer who was selling them at the store had just celebrated 20 years cancer-free so I bought 20 flowers. As a bouquet it’s not very impressive, but I love the unopened blooms that seem to be wrapped in the thinnest of tissue paper.

    i love the solidity in this painting Shari, the incredible interlacing, weaving of stems and the juxtaposition of the yellow buds with the lemon 🙂

    Shari, you always delight the eye. I’m amazed at how compelling you make the simplest subject. What a breath of fresh SPRING air. I agree with Mary; the lemon grounds the composition.
