Newest oil paintings- a trio of flowers

I finished the third painting in a set of three yesterday. Each painting is oils on gallery wrap canvas, 10" x 20", of a single flower; a daisy, a poppy, and an iris.


    

I really do love flowers. They just make me happy! Planting them, smelling them, painting them.... while painting these I was reminded of how, as a child, I would often come in from playing outdoors, with a handful of whatever flowers I could find for my mother. Sometimes all I could find were dandelions, but she would take them and put them in a vase on the kitchen windowsill all the same.
