Flowers of Faith

May has been a rainy month in Massachusetts. It is has been easy to get down and blue, but I have been working hard on staying faithful to God and flowers to stay up-beat and happy. Recently, I visited Tower Hill Botanical Gardens in Boylston, MA and was greatly inspired with the beautiful spring flowers. My mediums I used were gouache and alcohol inks. I painted the gouache on hot-press watercolor paper. With the alcohol inks, I painted on palette paper. Through flowers, scripture and prayers, I worked myself out of my dull moods. When you put Jesus and flowers together, how can anyone get down? God bless and keep painting. 
  "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours."   Mark 11:24
