One morning we noticed a surprise bloom from a long-forgotten bulb. Beautiful. Perfect. It bloomed overnight and withered with a week. I rushed into the house to grab my phone so I could document its beauty.
Only when the painting was complete did I notice its resemblance to the work of Georgia O'Keefe. I love to think she was peeking over my shoulder as I painted! She is one of my favorite artists--such an individual, an independent woman with a love for the sensual forms and colors of nature.
