La Vita Abondante. Sharing the “Abundance of Life” that I celebrate daily after my survival from Cancer, And…my love of Italy, sunflowers and the many meanings of lemons. The Mountain View was from my window in Bend, Oregon.
This red tulip from the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point in Utah sings with color.
Dancing with the Sunlight, these sunflowers are a part of a Series that I continue to add to. My signature flower.
Facing the Sun, these Sunflowers near San Gimignano danced for me in the light.
From the hilltop villiage of colorful Rousillon, Provence, the window and umbrella are connected by a grapevine climbing the wall.
Just outside my apartment in Provence, this flowershop beckoned me to paint it nearly everyday.
Up the hill from family friends, the Delphini’s, I painted this as their daughter watch me on their patio.
If you take time to look up when you visit the villages of Provence, treasures await.
