Fresh, Illustration Friday.

I was inspired to paint these fresh flowers by the wonderful Shelagh (you'll have to scroll down to see the picture)--I hope she doesn't mind I used her photo as inspiration. The photo is part of a calendar she has put together to raise funds for Katrina. Paris is springtime...what a nice thought!

Can I buy this as a small picture? Lillianna would love it because of the roses. She believes that all roses were made for her. (you know..the whole Lillianna ROSE thing!)

I would like to frame it and put it in her bedroom.
