    This oil painting is lovely, Lydia,
    such beautiful colors and shapes for the flowers and the butterfly. Is it a monarch ?

    Wishing you a good continuation of your creative spell,

    Olivia

    Hello Olivia,
    Thank you! I am glad you like this one. I am going to keep this painting to hang in my bedroom.
    The butterfly is a buckeye, but I changed the colors to purple. I reality buckeyes are different shades of browns with some back and a bit of orange in their wings. I kind of did my own thing with it's colors as well as the patterns of the buckeye. I hope you had a wonderful Monday and I also hope Chow Chow enjoyed his day.
    Wishing you a nice evening,
    Lydia

    Thank you Lydia,

    Chou-Chou is out right now, he loves strolling around at night.

    It is artistic liberty to change the colors in a painting. The expressionist Franz Marc painted blue cows, yellow horses and green cats - why not ?

    Blessings
    Olivia

    Good evening Lydia,

    This buckeye certainly is unique.
    The sun is shining here, but it is quite cool again. The tulips are blossoming, though.

    Hello Olivia,
    Thank you!
    I hope the sun is still shining where you are? It's foggy and raining here.
    Wishing you a wonderful day!
    Lydia
