Magnolia Blossom

“I am one of those artists who paint what they love. Horses, landscape and wildlife dominate my portfolio but I have always wanted to paint flowers. I recently completed a still life that challenged me with my first magnolia and I wasn’t happy with the results. I decided to paint another magnolia from a reference photo I had taken years ago to see if I could paint a magnolia in the natural environment. I am happy with the results and am inspired to try more flower paintings in the future. This painting is in oil on a linen panel.”
