This painting was inspired by a picture. I have always loved wildflowers and when I saw the picture in a calendar I was drawn to it. I changed it up a bit, and the flowers are much denser, but I was extremely pleased with the way it came out. It reminds me of running up a hill and turning the bend and much to my surprise there was a blanket of beautiful, colorful wildflowers covering the landscape. Then I would pick a bunch of the little fragile flowers cradling them gently in my hands until I arrived home to place them in a vase where they graced my kitchen table!

Yellow roses represent friendship and caring. They convey affection and warmth, another way of saying, remember me or good luck. I love yellow roses, and took care in building the oil paint to make this painting look like a tapestry. If you love yellow roses, this painting will bring you a lot of joy!
