Tulip Tree Flowers

"Had a wonderful hike with a friend of mine over the Memorial Day weekend. Somewhere along the was she noticed a couple of pale green blossoms that had fallen from a tulip tree, a kind of poplar. Growing up in Colorado, she said she never would have believed that tulips could grow on a tree. And yes, they are unbelievable flowers."

Tree Peony

"One month of undisciplined intent, doing everything but painting. There is so much happening in the spring - the time between mid-May and mid-June, one thing after another blooming or being born. And the freedom, finally, of being outdoors and comfortable. Time that (should?) would have been spent in the studio instead spent hiking, bicycling to work, or working in the garden. New flowers every day, fox kits, raccoon kits, goslings, fuzzy new creatures. How can I sit still and record it all? I must get out and live."
