I had the privilege of painting these flowers of many colors for a very darling lady, Bonnie Lauring. She herself, is such a lovely lady, glowing and reflecting the beauty of the flowers. She loved how the beautiful colors made her feel, so she asked to have these flowers hand painted on her cabinet doors of her bathroom vanity. It was such a joy having the opportunity to paint this variety of different colored roses and daisy's. It leaves me awestruck at each individual flower that God has made perfectly unique. As I was dwelling on the magnificence of Gods roses, I'm reminded of a song which says .."like a rose..trampled on the ground.. He took the fall.. and thought of me.. above all".. Someone far more beautiful than a rose, Jesus, displayed the greatest love imaginable when he gave his life so we could live. I hope to bring Him praise as He allows me to a part of His plan, the opportunity to reflect some of His greatness, through paint, so others can see maybe a little more clearly.. the true artist, the makers hand behind all this, holding everything together for His dearly loved children.
