Rembrandt Tulip

 Hooray for tulips that defy extreme weather!  I'm so happy to paint this sweet little Rembrandt tulip!  The spring blooms are previous this year, with the killing freeze and storms rolling through.  I hope there will be many more survivors popping up in my garden to paint.  Painting number 4839 in 4839 days. 

Rembrandt Tulip

 

Oh, how I love painting those first tulips of spring!  Each fall, I find special varieties to add to my gardens, and with a name like Rembrandt - how could I resist?  Each one is a different color, all striped as with a paintbrush!  Spending long days in my flower beds, it feels good to relax for a quick paint of this little gem. I think I'll add sunrises and sunsets to my daily time spent outdoors, I sure did love that on Anastasia Island.  What better way to start and finish the day?  Painting number 3748 in 3748 days.
