All spring I wait for my pink peonies to bloom. Actually, peonies don't bloom. They burst! It has been an unusually cool spring in the Mid-Atlantic region this year, so they just started blooming in my garden. I took some pictures on Tuesday and proceeded to paint my darling peonies. Unfortunately, the last two days were full of distractions and family duties to fulfill. After many disruptions, I managed to finish "Pink Peonies Bursting."

I must say that I have never painted peonies like this. The workshop with Gregory Packard is rubbing off on me! The biggest compositional challenge was how to handle the table, which bisects the picture so rudely. I rounded and lowered it. Please tell me that I did the right thing! I am going to paint a few more peony paintings because I just can't get enough of these flowers.
