LAVENDER BLUE

100 Paintings in 100 Days Challenge
'Inspirations from a Back Yard'

'Lavender Blue'
Oil 5 x 7
29/100


Day 29

One of the prettiest scents in my garden,
I can never just walk by the lavender without
touching the flowers to get that scent on my
hands. Lavender was always present in the
gardens of my mother and my grandmother, so
the tradition lives on.

If you would like to see to see more of my work,
please visit my website or my blog. If you are
interested in purchasing any of my paintings you see
here on this blog, please contact me.

The thing I like best about the lavender paintings I have done- they always sell quickly! This one - you have painted should be sold before the paint is dry!

Beautiful!!

I like the dark area on top with the light blue as a contrast.
Nice design, nice simple statement. It says one thing and that makes it work.

Yes, I also like it! You are really moving along with your 100 paintings! My lavender somehow got weeded out... but can't complain since I did have help this year and I can always buy more.
