My journey from a technical and strict discipline of forensic and composite art to fine art. I'm trying to unfurl my wings to fly into this new field but I'm still struggling to get out of my cocoon!

Natasha's Sunflowers
24x20 oil on gallery wrapped canvas
I had asked another talented photographer friend if I could use an image she took of some sunflowers she purchased. It took me over a year until I felt confident to do it justice.
Wow, Sheila! You are truly rockin' these flowers of late. 'Course, I've loved your work since I found your blog. One of my favorites is still the piece you did in the bar or restaurant...Do you remember that one? I love it!
Superbe ma chère Sheila... Je n'en demandais pas tant!!! ...sourire... Fantastique travail avec ce bouquet si généreusement bien dessiné et peint... gros bisous
