Only one taxi on this normally busy New York City street? What has happened to the world?

What fun to have movement in a painting. I enjoyed the color combinations here and painting the light reflections. But, I must admit, painting the flowing wine was my challenge… I worked and worked on it until it was pour-fect!

I love my local flower shop! I love the smells, the colors and the exotic flowers she has on hand. One day when I stopped by, however, my eyes rested on this simple vase with peonies from the owner’s own garden. They looked loose and casual – not formally arranged. I snapped a picture and really enjoyed painting this – especially the glass vase!
