This piece for Paint Party Friday was inspired by a photo taken by Kay on her blog. I had never seen columbines in those colours as the ones in my garden are yellow and don't look two-toned really. She took the photo during a family tour to Japan. My lavender version is on good quality textured cardstock (6" x 6") in acrylic. Thanks Kay for letting me use your photo.

What a lovely painting! I love columbines, I haven't painted one yet and I'm not sure if I've ever seen them in purple. So pretty!

Beautiful flower ....
I love yours paints and this look beautiful:)
I LOVE the bold and very graphic feel of your painting. The color combo is magnificent too. Blessings!
I've seen this one ! :)
I love visiting bloggers who live elsewhere. Lovely sketch. Good for you! I look at my blank page Thursday afternoons, and try to be creative... I want to seek inspiration but need to prepare for that. cheers!
Looks like you are on a fun trip! Love your columbine.
How lovely! I especially like these flowers--this past summer there were a whole lot of columbines, but in different colors than I was used to. Then I found out my younger sister had scattered seed around when I wasn't looking... :D
