A return to an old favourite
A few years ago, I was a little obsessed with painting dandelions. I don't know how many I did, but they were popular and always sold quickly. Eventually I grew tired of the same subject and moved onto other things. Last week I was contacted by a small, independent greeting card company who are interested in making cards using some of my work, and the owner mentioned how much he liked the dandelions! I almost groaned, but then I thought "why not?" so here are my two new dandelion paintings!

I absolutely love your dandelions1!!! The colors are beautiful!!!!
I love these both Ruth but my fave has to be 3 o'Clock. I really like the textures & colors in the background.
Thank you Meera, most people hate to see them in their garden but I like them!
Thank you so much Jocelyn :)
Thanks Billie, that's my favourite too!
Absolutely beautiful with such vibrant colours. How did you paint this? Did you use masking fluid.
Inspirational, thank you for sharing.
AussieMum, thank you for your kind comment! Yes, I use masking fluid applied with a ruling pen for fine lines, it can take some time to reach the fun stage but the results make it worthwhile.
