Hi everybody. I had not painted anything in a long time, but needed a really special Mother's Day present and so came Karen's Poppies. It is a combination of Japaese Sumie style painting and pen & ink with watercolor wash.

This pictures was taken on a recent trip to Russia, in a small town called Uglich along the river that runs from Moscow to St. Petersburg. My roommate and I were looking to buy flowers for our stateroom when we happen to come upon these three ladies. I asked if I could take the picture first, and without any posing (they were standing like this when we came upon them), I snapped the picture and seemed to capture a world of stories. Enjoy.

I am definetely not a photographer but I love these pictures of our victoria lily & wanted to share it with everyone. It's a beautiful night blooming lily that is native to the Amazon. The underside of the leaves are covered in thorns & the leaves when full grown can get 5' across & can hold up to 200lbs without breaking! It blooms for three nights starting out white & ending with a deep pink. (pics 1 & 2 are of the same bloom on different nights) Just for fun pic # 3 one of our customers sent us of their dog on the lily.
