Description
This iris seems to sing out an etherial landscape from her wide open petals. The shapes of the inner flower perform in perfect harmony of color and shapes with textures that take your imagination on a journey. "Diva Divine" was juried into the NWWS member show, Waterworks, in 2013 by juror Michael Reardon.
For the past few years I've been painting flowers up so close that they envelop the viewer in their sensuality and rich color. Enlarged, they become almost abstractions from nature without seeing the outer shape or the environment around them.
Image size: 27.625” x 20.5”
Frame size: 36.5” x 29.5”
I was honored to be the gold medal winning poster artist for the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival in 2016 with my watercolor painting of a tulip bouquet.
In 2012 I qualified to be a signature member of the Northwest Watercolor Society (NWWS). This is earned by being juried into a select number of local chapter and international watercolor society shows sponsored by NWWS. The initials now follow my signature on my paintings in this Floralscapes shop.

Magnificent artistry, Sandy. I am taking a beginner watercolor course, and am not a traditional artist. This level of skill (& perfection) is only achieved by talent like yours. Wonderful work! Hearty f/l
