© Robin Edmundson, 'Zinnias #4', watercolor, 15 x 11 inches. Framed to 20 x 16 inches. $375. |
I plant a long row of zinnias every year. They make me really happy.
I like the big ones. And the small ones. Also, the ones that look like cactus flowers and the ones that look like fat pompoms. I like the red ones, the orange ones, the yellow ones and the pink ones. And this year I got a couple of white ones that knocked my socks off.
While I was practicing a few versions of this piece, Claire walked in and looked at an early one and said, 'Frame this. I want it.' She's allergic to a lot of the outdoors, 'This way I can have them in my room.' [Of course, I framed hers first.]
This piece and a few more florals will be hanging at my upcoming show at the Vault at Gallery Mortgage in Bloomington, Indiana. October 2-29, 2019.
