Joanne Bradley
This is superb! The colors so romantic! I find your style of painting could be translated so easily to fabric or wallpaper. Love this design!
Pat Yager replied
Dear Joanne, you commented on this painting when I first joined RB, and it took me a while to “catch on” – thus I had indeed written my response to it, but had written it in the wrong box! I’m so sorry! Here is that reply: “Thank you, Joanne! You’re a great encourager!” Thank you for your great patience! – Pat

Hi, Jarede – I appreciate your kind comment! —Pat
Lucy Hollis
So dreamy. The simiplicity of the petals is so beautiful.
Pat Yager replied
Hi, Lucy—That’s the beauty of this flower – it IS so simple as it fairly glows in the whites, reds, pinks and bicolors that are now available. I’m glad you appreciate the painting – Thank you!

WONDERFUL PAINTING!
Pat Yager replied
Dear Tereza – Please forgive me – I just realized that I had written my response to your kind comment in the wrong box! I was brand new to RB and was still “learning the ropes” – but I do appreciate your nice words! And since that time I’ve had so much enjoyment frequently looking at all the new photos you are continuing to add to your lovely portfolio! Do you ever get any rest?! Have a beautiful remainder of the weekend! – Pat

This is exquisite. I wish I was that talented
Pat Yager replied
Dear Pat, I do want to thank you for your kind comment! I have to tell you that I did indeed write a reply to you, but just discovered I had written it in the wrong box, so you never received my answer – I’m so sorry! I was brand new to RB and still had lots to learn! Here is/was my reply: “Thanks, Pat. You know, each of us is gifted in different ways from each other. You have a wonderful gift of knowing what to photograph, and you do it very well. I’m sure you have other gifts as well!” Thanks for understanding, my friend!

This is beautifully painted. You have so effectively captured the character of cyclamen, that I find so elusive.
Pat Yager replied
Thank you, Bev. I actually had to combine two plants in order to get a good balance. I would encourage you to try to paint them, they’re not that difficult. And now that the cooler weather is setting in, the cyclamen can claim center stage, and most of us are spending less time out in the garden. Go for it, my friend!
Carolyn Staut
You have so captured the delicate yet durable beauty of the cyclamen. Your composition and colors are so lovely and the flowers are reaching out as if to greet one. Just beautiful!
Pat Yager replied
Dear Carolyn, I have to apologize to you! I did indeed respond to your kind comment of two weeks ago, but just discovered I wrote it in the wrong box! I’m so sorry, my friend! Here is what I replied: “What a lovely comment, Carolyn! Thank you very much! And I so admire the beauty of your work – you are so very creative!” Thank you for your patience, my friend! – Pat

Pat Yager replied
Hi, Denise! I apologize for my lateness in responding to your kind comment! I just discovered that when I did reply to you, I’d put it in the wrong box – so sorry!

Jan Stead JEMp...
Absolutely superb in every way Pat!!!
So soft, subtle and gentle and a wonderful depiction of a most beautiful plant.
I agree that they are such a delight when they begin to bloom when all else appears to fade and die. They surely are a sign of life in the midst of seeming death. light in the dark.
We had a beautiful cyclamen very similar in colour to this one, until it became a literal sign and source of life….for a possum that had somehow got into our kitchen and was stuck there. In the 5 days he was hiding by day and wreaking havoc by night, his only food was my cyclamen, flowers, leaves, the lot!!!!
You have a true gift. Thank you for sharing it with us!!! xxxx
