Flowers make me happy. I literally get well from sickness when presented with a bunch.  Hence, flowers were my initial (till now anyway) subject when I just suddenly found out that I could paint.  This spring bouquet is among my favorite work of art. Maybe because it was one of the easiest and the most enjoyable I had done. Well, for me that’s art, easy, fun & enjoyable. I don’t go for time consuming, meticulous obra maestras or those classified as realism and end up not wanting to paint anymore. That’s why I categorize myself to be a loose or impressionist artist. Watercolor is my first love. Its unpredictability excites me. The so called happy accidents that occur when you paint with watercolor are really the happy kind. A spill, a splatter can suddenly become a blooming flower.
