Until one of my collectors asked about peonies, I completely forgot them. The blooming season here is pretty much done, the blooms I could find were almost over. But I did remember that way back when I had drawn out a very detailed painting and still had it somewhere. I found it and finished the painting, which I had begun. The edges of the paper are storage-worn and there are a couple of nicks beyond the image area, but I decided that it was worthwhile finishing, the rendering was so complete, drawn from a bunch of blooms from Maryland, probably my mother's garden. Thanks for looking.
These are ecstatically extremely superbly beautiful! Whooeee! That's great that it was still in good enough shape to finish and what a masterpiece!
