  1. Beautiful very lovely paintings! Makes me want to paint flowers! Have you ever painted with egg tempera? I have just started and I am in love with it after many many years of oil painting on canvas! Catherine Meyers

  2. These are lovely, which isn't surprising having seen photos of your garden. I love the way you use pattern and repetition in developing the compositions.

  3. Thank you Cathrine and Sultan. i am glad you like it. the paintings are quite small. 20X30 cm. to 40x60 at the most. the 'flowers period' was very short but it was a great insperation. acombination betwean two great loves, painting and flowers and i paint them right when they appear in the circle of time.
    my choice to draw them in a repetition pattern was to avoid any particular composition.
    i never tryed traditional egg tempera but i love it. may be one day.. once i tryed oil tempera that was mix egg with terpentine. hope to sherthe result here one day.
