Iris in May

As some 617Midway readers know, I do some moonlighting for a blog on Nancy Landon’s garden. Well, I was down there today and she put me to work taking shots of her iris in bloom. What a sight to behold. The images barely do it justice, but I have included a few here.

These are similar photos to the ones as I used as the basis for some watercolors of flowers that were part of the giveaway during FPAC Art Walk a few weekends ago. I keep toying with the idea of doing some more flower paintings and keep getting pulled off to some other writing or art project. But, these turned out pretty well and could be great as the foundation for a painting or two.
