“Springtime Delight”

In March of 2016 Art & Soul Gallery held a “Spirit Of Spring” show of paintings by the galleries artists.

I created my painting, “Springtime Delight” for that show.

Then I never showed it again, even though I was happy with the painting.

Since it is a tulip themed painting I pulled it out to see if I could show as part of my tulip series.

After looking at it with fresh eyes, as it has been put away for some time, I saw some changes that I felt needed to made.

The before of “Springtime Delight” is on left and the finished painting is on the right, very happy with the results!

“Waking” watercolor 20×25″ by Lynda Hoffman-Snodgrass

Twilight

Thought it might be time for an update from me, I have been busy!

The tulips were spectacular this year and are now a memory.

Then came the irises, 100’s of them have bloomed.

Many of them are still blooming.

Maybe someday I will paint them, for now I enjoy and photograph them.

Their sweet smell has been intoxicating.

My husky, Siskiyou celebrated his eleventh birthday with Cascadia.

They each enjoyed a cheeseburger burger and a homemade peanut butter dog cookie.

Every year a fawn is born near my art studio – this year it is star-dusted twins!

My tulip series is currently on the back burner,

as I have been working on an exhibit for July at the Art & Soul Gallery.

“Varied Expressions” is a group show with my three gallery partners.

Spring is Here!

The sun is out and my tulips have bloomed.

The new Blumex Parrot Tulips turned out to be exactly what I had ordered.

They have been a delight to watch bloom and to photograph for future painting reference!  Very Inspiring!

On Monday,  I rehung my artwork at Art & Soul Gallery in Ashland, Oregon – here is my new display.
