Art takes a Back Seat

I have had a very distracting time from my painting this past couple of weeks with some of it giving me stress that affected my desire and ability to paint. All is sorted now with the wonderful arrival of our first grandson which is so exciting and secondly the news that my Mum has recovered sufficiently from her illness in London and can now fly home to Australia, so once again my mind is filled with happiness and this certainly promotes better art results.

This is the only piece I have painted in this time and these fragrant Magnolia blooms I spotted at Mt. Barker whilst driving through to the hospital last week. We stopped on the way back and Ian took some photos for me to use for reference. I love Magnolia and have painted my own garden white blooms twice before and probably will many more times.
