Pink Zinnia

"Pink Zinnia" 8" x 8" Oil on hardboard

She was one of the few in the garden that the bugs hadn't munched. She was full-blown and receptive to pollination, yet tiny—about the size of a ping pong ball—obviously the end of the season runt, yet she still had what it took! 


This painting used six different reds mixed with white. I would have enjoyed painting her even more had her actual color been more varied.

Thanks for looking.
