...bloom on...


...flowers are the instant mood booster!  Don't they just make you smile?!?!  I'm just starting on a pattern series inspired by my favorite blooms- succulents, poppies, ranunculus, peonies, & protea. 


These inspirational images I've dug up have me grinning from ear to ear.  Painterly blooms with linear overlays are in the works!  I'll keep you posted as the project evolves....
