| AQUARELLA - 10 1/2 X 14 INCHES ON STRATHMORE PAPER DANCING FUSCHIAS |
Nurserys are full of plants and flowers and this week I brought home a lot of them. Now, all I have to do is to plant them. It so happens I love digging and playing with soil. These are fuschias, flowers I specially like because they attract hummingbirds. They're doing a little dance, summer's here.

Thanks Judy! Very inspiring flower. :)
Hi Jane! Thanks, a lovely weekend to you too. I noticed you changed your blog picture. Cute. Hugs
Hi Lorraine! That's exactly what it is. :) A tutu. I love tutus. Wish I was a ballet dancer sometimes, just to wear those rustling and wispy things. xx
Hi Sherry! I'm very happy this one pleases you particularly. Yesterday, I spent some time examining a fuschia. Such delicacy, a little work of art all by itself. Have a great weekend Sherry, Hugs
Hi Helen, very very nice.
I want to let you know your blog is redirecting commenters to advertising and other stuff. I don't know if you've authorized that or if you've been hacked. It's happend a few times when I try to comment and sometimes I cannot get rid of it so I can leave a comment. This time I was lucky I guess.
Hi Carol! So sorry abpout about the trouble! It does happen to me too when I visit certain blogs but I hadn't realize it could be the same on my blog. I'll look into it. Have a great weekend! Hugs
What a beautiful painting of these intricate flowers. How lovely that you get humming birds
Hi Polly! When I first bought that flower a few years ago, I noticed these little birds for the first time of my life. Since then, I keep some every summer. Have a great weekend! Hugs
This is SO beautifully painted, Helen!!! Every time I see a Fuchsia plant, I think of my Mom and how much she loved them because they looked like ballerinas.. Fantastic colors!!
Thanks Hilda I'm so pleased you like it. My feeling exactly...a ballerina with a fluffy tutu. Have a beautiful week! xx
Het zijn inderdaad prachtige bloemen Helen ! Ze zijn klaar om samen met de elfjes te dansen op de tonen van de zomerwind.....
groetjes,
Simonne
Nicely put Simonne! Happy painting, Hugs
Beautiful painting ,Helen, how happy your summer will be!
Hi Celia, I hope we get some real nice weather this summer because last winter was so terribly long. I wish you the same. Hope you're feeling much better! xx
Wow Helen - just simply beautiful. I too have one of those to plant...this is a flower I have never painted before...your post has inspired me to give it a try.
Happy digging my friend. Thanks for visiting me in my garden too. Have a lovely week.
Thanks Debbie, can't wait to see your own interpretation! Hugs
Bonjour ma chère Helen,
J'avais manqué ta série de portraits !! aussi délicieux que tes fuchsias...
La beauté des ses clochettes retombantes apporte une grâce extraordinaire. Ses fleurs sont généreuses de par ses couleurs et ses formes. J'aime ce joli ballet... qui t'a entraînée à créer cette très jolie aquarelle.
Je te fais de gros bisous ♡
Bonsoir Martine, merci de ta charmante visite!
Ooh, the painting is gorgeous! I really love those flowers as a subject, too, now that I've seen how you painted them, with such vibrancy. I like the way you composed this piece, with the fuchsia not planted, but flowing freely with expression of their own. It's wonderful!
I appreciate your comment Kayherine, thanks! Have a beautiful day! :)
De merveilleuses couleurs, j'adore, tu as énormément progressé, ta peinture est magnifique j'aime tes aquarelles, superbe!!
Belle semaine à toi ma chère Helen! Bisous
Comme tu vois Cath, c'est le temps des fleurs. Très difficile de ne pas se laisser tenter par toute les variétés. Et toi, tu as le temps de jardiner un peu? xx
Glorious Watercolour! I am so envious of your skill.
Hi Sharon! Thanks for dropping by. Have a great weekend!
Pourquoi je n'avais pas vu cette beauté c'est un mystère que seulement bloguer peut savoir... Ces fuchsias-ci sont magnifiques, ma chère! Tu es dans une bonne passe!
Abrazotes
Merci Margarita, ces fleurs se sont transformées tout à coup en mini-danseuses. :) Bon weekend, Abrazotes
