Dew Drops15 x 15 Special order Giclee available |
Creating this piece was almost magical! I remember it was late at night. I was postponing doing the water droplets...because I'm not a "detail type person". Well, I loaded my brush, pushed down on the special spot (guess the previous quote calls it "the right place")...lifted the brush...and it was all there!! The reflected light, the shadow, the feeling of a water drop! Then, somehow, I did it again!! Felt like that paint brush on the Wonderful World of Disney, where it swishes, and everything just appears!

Dear Evelyn, Thank you for your kind note.
You are the reason I paint!
For if one does not touch another's heart,
with one's life, what is the purpose!!? Betty
