Iris of the Moon



In the early 1990s I created a lot of ladylike flower paintings. They appealed to a portion of my clientele and I could sell them all. I haven't done a flower painting for many years now, I want my output to be more macho. I still like this blue-purple color scheme though.

"Iris of the Moon" is watercolor and gouache on illustration board, 6" x 9", June 1990.

I don't see these as particularly "lady like" or feminine. Especially in these colors. Another one that would look great on a T-shirt!

I find this picture stunning and would like to talk to you about using it as my blog Gravatar. Is there an email I can reach you at?
