ACEO Blue Pansy - SOLD



This painting is an Original watercolor-acrylic on Strathmore 140-lb cold-press paper, lightly sprayed with a protective coating for preservation. It's colorfully lovely, in detail ~ and if you enjoy a pansy pot or garden, you'll love this mini piece of artwork! Pansy faces are a favorite among gardeners, and sky blue pansies with dark blue centers are a special favorite of mine. I've added light blue Forget-Me-Nots around the pansy. Initialled on the front, the backside is signed and dated, along with the medium used and the title.

Two Tulips on My Windowsill


Each spring, my sister shares her beautiful garden tulips with me, and I enjoy placing them on my kitchen windowsill in the morning sunshine, in a variety of glasses and vases. This little ACEO was painted with pastel pencils of the very last two this year, bright pinky/red, in a blue tulip sundae glass. They were finally fading and barely able to stand...goodbye all my cheery little friends, until next spring when we'll meet again...
