How can you not be inspired by flowers? Your garden or a friend's?
The Queen Anne's lace is blooming everywhere now. The warm winter meant it all came about two weeks early. In NC they bloom wild alongside what we call "Tiger Lilies" Somehow "ditch lilies" doesn't do it for me! I let a few grow randomly in my garden and love that decision!
Both types of flowers are a fond remembrance of mine of my sister and I riding our horses down the roads and seeing these same types of wildflowers growing alongside the road in upstate New York!
So a combination of using leaves (yanked from my grass) as a stencil, lace, paint, spray ink, markers and my trusty gel medium, transposed my vision into a fun 9 x 11 Art Journal page of a few sentences and all things Queen Anne's Lace!
It's easy to paint the flower...just blopping dabs of white paint in the general shape of the head of the flower!
