One More Day Pink Peony Bouquet

Finding out-of-season pink peonies at the market inspired this painting, capturing the resilience of the two blooms that lasted through the night. As I prep for a Texas Hill Country workshop, I’m also planning a kolache-fueled road trip to kick things off right.

One More Day Pink Peonies was the result of another good day at the flower market, I found fresh peonies out of season! Only two in the bundle really held up well overnight, so I painted them here, as a tribute to their perseverance under the bright studio lights. My Pug-mobile will soon be filled with supplies for my next workshop in the Texas Hill Country. I am planning to make a strategic stop at the fresh kolache bakery one morning, to indulge just a bit! Hopefully there will be at least a few left in the box by the time I make it to class, but I can’t make any promises or anything…!

If you could have one more day

With someone you love

What would you do

What would you say

If only one wish

Could come true

My wish would be to have

One more day with you.
