I love painting flowers and plants! But the creative process is not just the painting. Here’s a peek into a bit of the process to get there. This is the phase I’m in now: Sketching, filming (for you!), and painting. Before that is a lifestyle of photographing beautiful plants and drawing everyday. I have a strong desire to paint form my own photos. It adds to my connection and depth of meaning to the painting. I remember where I was and how I felt when I saw those plants. This somehow translates to the final magic of the piece.

My goal in taking you behind the scenes is for you to enjoy a richer experience of the artwork similar to me when I touch the plant, angle my camera up towards the light, and include the other stages of plant growth and development.
