beauty / loveliness
solo post - L, Nikon
My camellia bush has 12 buds on it this year - seems last year there were only a few. It's one of my favorite blossoms of spring. Seems each year it inspires me. Or maybe it's springtime in general that instills a new creative energy in me. So I snipped a branch from the bush and brought it in to paint. I'm very excited about the simplicity of this arrangement - a single blossom, and a bud, in a common glass bottle - it speaks of loveliness.

If you care to visit, I, Leslye, have another blog - AutumnSun where I ramble around different paths and pleasures of my own.

so soft and beautiful!!
This is really a lovely, peaceful image - both of them!
Oh so beautiful! :)
serenity in that single bloom ...
Wow, love these photos of your fave flower! John bought me some tulips today (b/c of surgery) and I got my camera right out, baby :) We are a ways from real outdoor flowers.
the bud is really large Leslye..I have not seen camlias here . it is a gem of a bloom!
Loveliness indeed. Gorgeous shots! We inherited two really big camellia bushes when we moved in here but they are bright red bloomers. Not as pretty as your white ones.
Yes, it does! So very lovely.
I am off to snip one now. You are an inspiration.

I am eager to see your painting. I hope you'll share it with us when you've finished.
