The Dragonfly and I

Every morning I spend time in my garden, visiting with my plants and saying good morning to all of Mother Nature's wonders that preserve our planet's delicate balance. This Dragonfly and I became friends and after several days of her returning and making herself undeniably known, I decided to paint her. She would grab my attention by landing on me, and then fluttering over to the jasmine vine where she would keep me company as I soaked up the morning in my garden. This painting is accented with shimmering metallic watercolors. The Dragonfly and I, watercolor on paper, unframed, 12x16.5”
