Floral collection

I love flowers.
There is something about flowers whether they are natives or not that warms my heart. When one first sees flower buds emerging from their long winter slumber that seem to spread a feeling of cheer as one can feel Spring is just around the corner, followed by the summer blooms.
It's always a joy to create something which will lift ones mood or spirits and flowers will always do exactly that.
Again, I've used Acrylics or Watercolours to create these artworks.
