Magnolia Reflections in Blue #1

A beautiful white magnolia branch collected from our very old Mountain Garden.
Placed in a large round glass vase I wanted to capture the morning sunshine as it washed across the delicate petals of this magnificent flowering plant.
This particular magnolia I planted in our garden many years ago and this was the first year that its very large flowers unfolded to a perfection I had not seen before.
so happy to have captured this fleeting beauty on canvas.

This is one painting of two that I have created to be either hung together or apart. I feel they work equally as well either way.

Both are framed by my local artisan framer in Raw Oak ready for your wall.
