Pink proteas. When I purchased these proteas at the farmers market, I was struck by their sturdy beauty and could hardly wait to get them home. When I started to photograph them, the flowers soaked up the light and burst with energy. It seemed like the leaves were playing along, reflecting the light, and I spent some time just watching the dance of shadows before I began to paint. I love the glow of life here, which I tried so hard to capture.
