These peonies are from our garden. They bloom fairly early in the summer and die too quickly. This year after I picked a bouquet, I decided to paint them. They last forever this way.
This is lovely Cecelia! I too love the peonies and mine never last long enough (and are covered with ants!). You have captured their beauty to enjoy all year long.

Beautiful painting. Peonies are one of my favorite flowers and yes, they die too quickly. I like the dark background..well done.!

How great to set this up at night. You are full of surprises! Nice work.
One of my absolute favorite flowers, and you have painted them so masterfully! This is beautiful, Cecelia.
How lovely a scene this is! Gorgeous colors and soft lamplight make these peonies a wonder to behold!
Thank you all--what an encouraging group you are!
I can smell them now! Beautiful!
One of my favorite flowers as well. The contrasting dark background really makes them pop. great piece.
