An attempt at painting an image with my camera :). This shot is also available with a border.
On a visit to the Jardin Botanique in Montreal I was captivated by the Chinese Garden. Various ponds and streams had huge floating islands of lily pads. But it was not until I rested that I discovered these two lily pads and the reflections, just over the side of the bench I was sitting on. Taken in macro mode. Nikon D40, 18-55mm lens. “Life is not merely a series of meaningless accidents or coincidences, but rather it is a tapestry of acts that culminate in an exquisite, sublime plan.” -from the movie Serendipity Featured in the Natural Color and Light group February 2009 / Avatar for Nirvana group December 2008 / Featured in the Abstracts From Nature group July 2008.

If you look closely (in the “large” view) you’ll notice that some of the black spots are actually ants :)

30”x 40” acrylic on Number 80 Bainbridge Board cold-pressed. I used gesso to cover the beginnings of something I had started a long time ago. I have been working on this off and on for the past couple of weeks…...... between giving time to two grandsons, ten cats, and a dog. First large painting, and first flowers I have done in a while. My inspiration has been all the wonderful florals I have seen on RedBubble! There are so many beautiful paintings and drawings on this site….....all are an inspiration for me to paint and draw again.

these lotus flowers are huge. the bud is a bit bigger than a baseball, and the open blossom is about the diameter of a basket ball (when fully opened). just had to shoot these two – side by side at various stages in their floral existence!

just caught these rain drops hanging off the lilies in my garden / Jesus said / Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin, yet I say to you that even Solomon in all of his glory did not clothe himself like one of these. But if God so arrays the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more do so for you, O men of little faith? Do not be anxious then, saying, “What shall we eat?” or “What shall we drink?” or “With what shall we clothe ourselves?” For all of these things the gentile eagerly seek; for your heavenly father knows that you need of all of these things. But seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness; and all of these things shall be added unto you.

I tried to do some macro photography outside in my garden after the rains, and found this Inca Lily with droplets on the stamen and the inside of the flower. I tried several shots (but without a tripod) and had a few blurry pictures from that. But I also got a few really nice ones and I especially love this one – love the sunburst on drops and could not get those for a while. Did something right and this one droplet has a sunburst!

I saw this garden gate this summer and wanted to paint it right away. To me it is so inviting.
Acrylics on canvas (16×24inches). (sold) I love summertime in Ireland. Although our garden is quite a mess now because renovating our little cottage left us with very little time to pay attention to the garden, there are lots of flowers. Lilies and hydrangeas, even the odd tiger lily pops up between stones and overgrown weeds. The liles are real… the vase, glassy surface and little bowl exists only in my imagination.
