The painting is amazing..The flower is bewitchingly beautiful and stands out so charmingly wanting to be touched and appreciated. The color combination is marvelous.<br /><br />Talking of flowers, it is surprising that flowers bloom where ever they are planted. It may be a garden, a foot path or even a remote place where no one can notice them, yet they bloom beautifully without the need to be appreciated. Nature is fabulous.<br /><br />Best wishesJoseph Pulikotilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07074346261093541776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-39846339477289234472015-05-17T05:28:17.128-06:002015-05-17T05:28:17.128-06:00I misread this and spent ages looking for a coin, ...I misread this and spent ages looking for a coin, as in 'Penny With Bud'.
