This little painting was first painted en plein air on a back patio, then Karen decided to produce another in a very similar style in studio.  We have a ton of echinacea plants that pop up all over the place because they were included in our original pollinator field wild flower mix a few years back. The light was catching the clump of flowers just right this morning.
 
Oil on gessoed board, framed in a tasteful 3/4" wide black black from with a very thin bit of gold leaf to set off the painting (pic available upon request).  Frame is from Master's Frame Company, locally owned and operated in Clarksville, Indiana.
