"Heart of Hydranga"

Sold
The Lacey Cap Hydrangea is a very beautiful Specimen of the Hydrangea flower.
It resembles the head of a woman crowned with a floral wreath and reminds me of May Day ceremonies in the spring as a child with wreaths of flowers and flowing ribbons and smiles and laughter weaving the ribbons around the pole.
When I was observing the plant and deciding my painting concept of the flowers I noticed that each petal of the flower looks like a heart and even the leaves look like huge green hearts and that was my inspiration for the heartfelt painting and the heart shaped vignette.
This is my Valentine in Blue.
Prints available.
