This is a different subject for me. When I began to get serious about painting I would look for hours at other artist work and ponder how they arrived at deciding on the subject they painted. I like still lifes and flowers but it’s not one of the things that has ever been at the top of my list.
This is from my daughter’s back yard in Fort Worth and when I saw it I knew this was a painting waiting to happen.
