February Florals 2025

During February 2025 I took on a challenge to paint a flower every day and write a poem about that flower. I loved the challenge so much that I got a little carried away so that by the end of the month I had created over 60 paintings of flowers which you can find in this link.

I hope you enjoy this collection of paintings and poems.
