First Redbud

First Redbud, L. Daniel, 12 x 9


We always know that spring is arriving in Texas when the Redbuds begin to pop their buds. It's  a visual treat. We have about two weeks to enjoy the color, so I try and get out a few times to paint the crazy pinks and purples. This is my first redbud painting of the season and I'm hoping to get a few more painted before they all turn green and blend into the landscape.

    We are having some peek out here too! So pretty and I love the composition of the tree just leaning there with the pretty pinks against the greens.

    I love redbuds, and I'm so jealous that you've got blooms already! Beautiful piece, Laurel....

    Gorgeous Laurel,

    I've been having technical difficulties with my main computer, so I sometimes have trouble commenting.

    I hope you know that I love everything I do.

    XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXBarbara

    So pretty! I wish we had Redbud in Maine. We're still pretty brown for the most part inspite of the 5 days of warmth we recently had.
