I can't make a good painting unless I love what I'm looking at, and I love these luscious pink peonies I found at Trader Joe's. I took them outside to get some good sun on them in several different arrangements and shot some photos. I love the movement of the strong shadow moving off to the bottom left, and the sweep of the single bud going off to the top right -- that arc helps showcase the grace and energy of the flowers.
