Oil on Canvas

16x20"

The inspiration for this painting came from my love of painting clouds in an impressionistic style with thick and vibrant oil paint, but as I painted I also recalled the poem,

Wildflowers
by Amour de Monet

"you cannot catch a wildflower"
he says.
"you are my wildflower."

"...I stand with arms stretched
spinning in circles like a tiny tornado
grazing the tips of each blade of grass with my fingertips
dancing with my pointed toes upon dewy petals
breathing in the heavens of the earth
feeling as if the sun was shining from within me
my world could not exist without this insatiable lust for life
you cannot hold me and shelter me under the dark roof you flourish in
I am a wildflower
I need the meadows, the sky, the sun, the air, the freedom"

The sides have been carefully painted in a wrap around effect as I feel this finishes the work and makes it ready for immediate display. There is no need to frame unless it is your personal preference.

This work will also come wired for your convenience. The painting is signed on the front and is signed and numbered on the back.

The work will be safely shipped and will come with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Thank you for visiting my gallery.
