I like how this piece ended up: the red edges on the petals, the purple with the yellow, and the sunny feeling. This piece is a nice addition to the other tulip paintings I've been doing. The series needed some purple.

Happy Cinco de Mayo. The title for this painting is Spanish for "fresh." I was listening to Spanish guitar music while doing this painting, and the colors in the painting remind me of berries, limes, and the freshness of summer drinks.

I'll think I'll go have some lemonade.

I called this piece "Home" because painting it was like coming home after a long trip.  I've been experimenting with different processes of painting and taking a lot of time out of the studio to photograph tulips blossoming in the area. Today it was marvelous to return to what I know, and paint just to paint.
