Tropical Flowers by Sheri Jones 16 x 20 oil on canvas These were painted from flowers I received from my husband. He has great taste in flowers and know I appreciate it. This was created using a paint brush and a palette knife. I do whatever I can to get the paint on in a timely fashion! I like to work fast and I think you can see that with this one.

"Rhapsody in Bloom" ©2010 Niki Gulley oil painting on canvas • 12" x 12" I knew I wanted to paint some fun, bright, happy florals – especially after such a cold, rainy and even snowy winter – to help lift my spirits, so I chose this boldly colored Bird of Paradise and painted a cheerful lemon yellow background to add to the sense of the painting's overall warmth. Using extremely thick oil paint and a palette knife, this painting just leaps off the canvas in person.
