Botanical Still Life-Original painting by Catherine Nolin

I spent Sunday working on this painting and was able to finish it today.  I felt very guilty in my studio all day yesterday while my husband raked the yard and then went on a hike alone. .  It was 60 degrees you know.  As I painted I kept thinking about the snow and cold and how hard it makes everything.  I thought about my mother who won’t be able to go out much once winter really sets in.  I guess that’s why I felt compelled to paint  a bouquet of flowers.

Swinging Susan

 

My mother was quite glamorous in her day. I love looking at glossy black and white photos of she and my father out with friends usually at swanky dinner clubs. Reminds me now of something out of Mad Men. She was always beautifully dressed but in almost every photo her eyes were closed! Always anticipating the flash I suppose. I have painted her here swinging above a lovely garden with an Islandus falcon keeping watch. This painting is 11x14 painted on stretched canvas with acrylics. The sides have been painted so no frame is needed. Wired and ready to hang.
