a weathered soul..but charmed and beautiful

I received a dazzling surprise Bouquet
from my mother at the door
she has been known to do this often
she knows my love for flowers
and the ones from her garden are very special!
They became interwoven with my painted ladies..

Love the ladies and the bouquets!! Your mom is a special woman to adorn your place with such an array of color! :):)
such beautiful, I always like coming here, its just such a calming place
Your mother chose a wonderful gift to give you, the flowers are so beautiful. Loving your WIP's they are all so enigmatic, wonderful work as always my friend. Happy PPF, Annette x
Isabella or Isabloom is so beautiful- I love that she's not brand new and young!
You always add such magic to all you do!
Hugs,
Stephanie
P.S. I didn't know Clematis could could go in a vase! I have a summer variety that should bloom soon- I can't wait to try it out!
Amazing, inspiring combination, awesome flowers and beautiful, intriguing ladies with their mysterious stories! Always a pleasure to see your latest creations, thank you for sharing them!
...Victoria what delights!...I'm looking at Isabella and wondering is she harbouring the loss of her youth with that languid sadness in her eyes or whether she is mourning a lost loVe? as I'm sure you know the long tendril with those delicate hearts is called LoVe Lies Bleeding, I've forgotten it's Latin name or is it pure serendipity? either way this painting got me thinking...wishing you a happy creative weekend & may your brushes be held by the silken wings of angels...Mel :)
as usual, I am bewitched and charmed by this week's offering. What wonderous things we see here!! thanks!!
Beautiful, beautiful paintings. I LOVE the bleeding hearts. :)
Your paintings and flowers look perfect together! xo
Victoria,
Isabella is so gorgeous and expressive.
I love that she is blooming and flourishing.
♥♥♥
Happy PPF!!

Such joy to visit your wonderful magical world again. I love all the ladies, all beautiful colours and flowers. Fleur, the aging flower moves me very much. Because i am an aging flower myself and it seems that nowadays you have to be young and are not allowed to age gracefully. That bothers me sometimes. So i keep Fleur in my heart to remind me that all flowers are beautiful, even the ceased blossoming ones.
I send you sweet greetz Victoria.....
Such Beautiful work Victoria!! I finally found your post hooray!! I've had difficulty navigating your blog almost every time I visit! I just never went far enough down. Glad I finally figured it out!!Silly me.
The flowers your mom brought are gorgeous...us moms love making our daughters happy!! They look so beautiful amalgamated with your ladies!! Happy ppf!

The combination of your lush paintings with the insane colour in the flowers is absolutely perfect... and so beautifully photographed... a visit here is truly mystical...xx
When I saw the first photo of Isabella with the flowers and rose quartz, I thought the rose quartz was a piece of pie . . . guess that shows where my desires lie, LOL!
such a prolific array of photos of your wonderful paintings. I did believe the bleeding hearts were painted in the top photo, now am not so sure. What's visiting flowers and which are painted? LOL
You are tricky me thinks.
Lovely works of art you create!
HPPF!
What beautiful flowers from your mom ;o) And, what magical paintings! Everything blooming with life and love ;o) Happy weekend ;o)
I do love your ladies and their elaborate hats!
Oh how lovely and full of wisdom she is. And such glorious flowers to receive from your mother! They look so lovely next to your art! :)
Beautiful ladies. They are always so soulful.
i love the aging beauty....what a great sentiment and subject to paint!
enjoy your day!!!!
The charm and beauty of your paintings so well mingles with the vivacity of those rich flowers...Love them all as usual!
dear Victoria, there is a resemblance between these flowers and your paintings, the richness of these vivid coleurs, the folds of the petals, the joy of blooming it all relates, happy summer solstice to you too next week, xx
oh yes, we are tiptoeing into summer. so green and lush!
how wonderful of your mother to bring you flowers! i use to put flowers in my sons room, he loved that surprise. i went camping this week and returned to find flowers at my door, that was a sweet surprise too.

Hi Victoria! What a sweet idea your mom has to bring you such beautiful flowers! The loving hearts or dicentras are one of my favorite plants. My grandmother used to have some in her front garden and on my way to school, I'd stop to pick up a few.
For a moment, I thought it was part of Isabella's painting. Magnifique!
I also find your pictures so graceful and artistic! Take care. Hugs
