Emerald Hoodies

A detailed mandala doodle pattern full of natural botanical elements - leaves, flowers, ferns and vines. This is the third version, in deep teal blue, mint green, aqua, black and white.

I've been exploring a variety of styles lately, I guess it was inevitable that they would eventually get mixed up together. This is the second of two colorways. > An impressionistic style painted pattern of pink, red and white colored hibiscus flowers combined with hand drawn & painted doodle patterns against a soft blue background.

There is something about suzani that just makes me happy, which is why I had to try my hand at making my own. ☺

A simple, smudgy soft oil pastel floral pattern in shades of blue, purple, pink and grey.

I love proteas, they are such wonderfully sculptural flowers. Plus, they're South African. So maybe I'm biased ...

Such wayward flowers, these. They always do exactly what they want and never ever what YOU want them to. : ) (Love them anyway!)

For the love of deliciosa monstera! The original was hand painted in oil paints on canvas.

I've been experimenting with gouache, though I'm not sure I'll get very far! It's not something I've tried before, I kind of feel like a kid playing with craft paint... But I do love tulips, and these coral red blooms make me happy. : )

I've been enjoying the evening light these spring days, and finally got my hands on some poppies, only to find out how very difficult they are to photograph. (Kind of like newborns...) Sigh. Their stems make me smile, though, remind me of my children. They go their own way and follow no rules, each one individual and full of character. : ) Camera Model Canon EOS 600D Shooting Mode Manual Exposure Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1/250 Av( Aperture Value ) 3.2 ISO Speed 200 Lens EF100mm f/2.8 Macro USM

A pretty pattern of pink painted palm leaves. : )

A few days ago, we had a black frost come through our garden and my beautiful, enormous bougainvillea plants were frozen from the ground to the sky; the next day all the leaves were shriveled up and dead... But this afternoon I was outside and saw the way the sun was catching the blossoms - they're all crisp and fragile, the frost must have got them, too - but somehow they are so lovely still. Camera Model Canon EOS 500D

Breaking the rules, because the center is all blur and the only focus is at the edges... but I like it, anyway. I love the big blurry circle that is the backside of the central daisy. : )

A pattern created from flowers and leaves, hand painted with watercolors. Still trying to figure watercolors out, not quite comfortable yet. The control freak in me is having a little meltdown, but the free spirit in me will not let her win... ☺

Been doing a little doodling. : )

I drew this over-sized floral pattern with a pencil and then coloured it digitally, playing around with my own watercolor textures. Bright & fun. : )

I've been wanting to make a pattern with tulips for a while now. They really are a favorite of mine.
