I have a Napoleon fixation. Wouldn’t call it a complex, exactly. I think has something to do with the fact that I’m five feet tall. Maybe it is a complex. C’est la vie.

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Pink Frilly Gladioli Gladiolus (from Latin, the diminutive of gladius, a sword) is a genus of flowering plants in the iris family (Iridaceae). Sometimes called the sword lily, the most widely-used English common name for these plants is simply gladiolus (plural gladioli, gladioluses or sometimes gladiolas). The genus Gladiolus contains about 260 species, of which 250 are native to sub-Saharan Africa, mostly South Africa. About 10 species are native to Eurasia. There are 160 species of Gladiolus endemic in southern Africa and 76 in tropical Africa. The species vary from very small to the spectacular giant flower spikes in commerce. These attractive, perennial herbs are semihardy in temperate climates. They grow from rounded, symmetrical corms, that are enveloped in several layers of brownish, fibrous tunics. Their stems are generally unbranched, producing 1 to 9 narrow, sword-shaped, longitudinal grooved leaves, enclosed in a sheath. The lowest leaf is shortened to a cataphyll. The leaf blades can be plane or cruciform in cross section. Canon PowerShot A650 IS / 12.1MP – 6x Optical Zoom – 4x Digital Zoom

I guess she is having a little break. I used someone’s photo as a reference for this by the way, But I don’t know who took the photo (it’s all in russian or something. got the reference photo from widelec.org) I don’t want to take credit for the composition etc. It’s just practice for painting.

Noelle’s family was moving away the next day. The two girls’ mothers wanted some photos of the best friends to remember each other by, so they brought them to my studio for a tea party. Noelle was a shy, quiet girl; but her twinkling eyes spoke to me of great intelligence and a lovely sense of humor. I captured this pensive moment on the sly, while she waited for her friend, who was posing for the camera. As usual, I liked the unposed portraits much better than the more formal ones.
