Gifts of Blue by Sheri Jones

Gifts of Blue
11x14 oil on canvas
The blue bluebonnets are a welcome site and we found miles and miles of them on Friday. It was a gift to paint outside in this sea of blue. We wanted to take advantage of the beautiful weather and this window of time while they are out. My painting friend, Jill Randall and I were in the Glen Rose area.

Azaleas in Bloom by Sheri Jones

Azaleas in Bloom
8x10 oil on canvas

This was inspired from a drive through the Ft. Worth Botanical Gardens recently.  These beautiful plants grace the entrance of the park and are a welcome sight. I've always wanted to paint them and the time was finally right.  It's fun to check in often to see what's blooming. The azaleas and roses are popping now.   This is available for purchase through Dutch Art Gallery,  Dallas, Texas.
