The joy of flowers

One thing I've learned from my wonderful artist friend -- Flora
Doehler is that flowers are one of the easiest routes to happiness.
So I love this painting from way back in 2012. Yes I am still
on holiday and one of the best things about this time of year
in our part of the world are the beautiful flowers.  

In a world filled with stress, I take comfort and feel the 
power of nature when I see gorgeous flowers.  And I feel the
same way when I paint them. 

I hope you can take some time to enjoy nature today.
And if you haven't seen it already check out the work of
Flora Doehler.

Have a loving your life day!
