Summer Hollyhocks garden paintings I think of childhood summers

I think of childhood summers and innocence and laughter…playing in the Yellow Flower Fields

Dripped paint applied in an expressionist style suggests tangled grass and flecks of gold paint light up the artwork as they catch sunlight bringing depth and intrigue to the painting

Blossom petals fall lazily into a sweet murmuring lake

Dream Seekers was inspired by wildflowers

deep pink wild roses crawling their way toward the sun

Summer Hollyhocks garden paintings I think of childhood summersSummer Hollyhocks, oil, enamel and ink on canvas, 96 x 130 x 4cm. Summer Hollyhocks, tall and straight, reaching ever skyward like Icarus toward the sun, flowering faces bathed in sunlight. Inspired by roadside wildflowers, the beautiful Hollyhock is the subject of this painting. I wanted to capture the wild beauty of an urban patch of ground, the tangled grass and opportunistic flowers vying for life. Dazzling in their overlooked splendor Summer
