Inspiration for Yellow Abstract Marks 2 Painting

The Abstract Flower Marks Painting Series started on the first day of Spring, March 20, 2019. In Toronto that day it was still freezing cold but the sun was shining, and the ice and snow was melting. When I looked outside my studio window, I could feel the start of spring.

I started painting imagined flowers and grasses of what I hoped would soon appear in Toronto. These paintings are very colorful and lively with lots of movement.
