Description
Title: Foxglove Glory
Last year on Mother's Day my granddaughter led me, her uncle and her family by bike to show me the flower in the middle of Golden Gate Park in San Francisco that she thought I should paint. It was this foxglove standing tall by a path that is often considered a weed but is quite glorious in bloom. I honor her with this painting for thoughtfulness and her great sense of direction for a 9 year old! It was a fun family ride!
For the past year I've been painting flowers up so close that they envelope the viewer in their sensuality and rich color. Enlarged, they become almost abstractions from nature without seeing the outer shape or the environment around them.
Image size: 8.5" x 11"
Frame size: 16" x 20"
This is an original painting in a contemporary 16" x 20" white wood frame with a white archival mat and glass. The size on this listing is the painting size, not the whole frame size which is in a 16" x 20" frame. A Certificate of Authenticity comes with the watercolor signed by Sandy Haight. It is ready to hang for your pleasure. The art is professionally photographed which will make reproductions impossible to discern from the original painting other than the deckle edge of the painting which is part of the original art.
I’ve been using watercolor and ink brush line in my illustration work for nearly 20 years, but in a much more controlled and predictable way. My pictures appear on book jackets, ads, posters, logos and packaging all over the country, with clients in England and Canada. If you’d like to see my world of client driven projects, check out my published artwork at http://sandyhaight.com. My Watercolor Life Drawings, Sumi paintings and watercolors are on my fine art web site at http://sandyhaightfineart.com as well as other sections of this Etsy shop. Teaching watercolor has recharged my interest in painting subjects that I love.
I was honored to be the gold medal winning poster artist for the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival in 2016 with my watercolor painting of a tulip bouquet.
In 2012 I qualified to be a signature member of the Northwest Watercolor Society (NWWS). This is earned by being juried into a select number of local chapter and international watercolor society shows sponsored by NWWS. The initials now follow my signature on recent watercolor paintings that you can see in my Floralscapes.

Sandy; I am so impressed with the detail and craftsmanship of your body of work. Very impressive. I needed to compliment you, and had to find a painting that didn't have dozens of comments. They are all inspiring me to get back to the art table and work, work, work! I hope the process give you as much joy as those who view your work!

Hi Lance, Thanks for your generous response to my paintings! You are inspiring me to get back to work, work, work. Looks like you are a master of watercolor and even integrating abstraction!
