  1. Poinsettia... FOR so many Reasons. ..
    A very Strong stem for a flower - it is hard to kill!
    Needs care to bloom - it only blooms in certain conditions
    The "blooms" are actually no different than the green leaves, they have just grown "for such a time as this" and therefore are specialized.
    This red plumage draws fertilizing focus to the golden crown, to bring forth fruit.
    The fertilized stamen that grows into a seed. ...I think. ... needs special care to grow into fruit. .. like the seed from the sower. the ability to grow depends on the type of soil in which it is planted!
    And then we are back to needing care and nurture to be bloom where it's planted, and to produce fruit.
    A story of living the Christian life.
    If I could, I would surround myself with poinsettias every Christmas!

Touch of Pink, 5 x 7 oil, still life

Touch of Pink © Donna Pierce-Clark ~ Stages of Touch of Pink ~ First the drawing.....    ~ Then, the initial paint-in, just shapes and colors. ~ Then highlights and sparkles and dots! ~ On to the large easel........ ~ ~ Above is my large studio easel, on which I have started a 24" x 36" canvas in oils. We traveled to Rainbow Bridge on a river cruise several years ago and this canvas was actually begun soon after that trip. I think this poor canvas has been neglected for at least 3 years!  I am so happy to be back to this painting.  Below, you can see a few later stages of development and the photo reference on the computer monitor, from which I paint.  Ideally, I would prefer to be painting on location;  but, I'm happy to use the computer monitor for now. ~ To the left of the easel, I also have a still life table. If I am doing a large still life, I'll use this set up and the larger easel. At this time, howev
