Summer Roses and White Cabbage Butterfy

May 20, 2009 at 1:38 pm by Claudia

I recently won a giveaway from my artist friend, Helene Glehen. Helene lives in France and is tremendously talented. I marvel at her beautiful watercolor and oil paintings. You must visit her blog and see her beautiful creations.

Yesterday, I checked my mail at the Theater and there was an envelope from France. This was inside.


This original watercolor is entitled: Summer Roses and White Cabbage Butterfly. Isn’t it lovely? The colors are a bit off; I’ve tried to get them as close to the original as possible.


I am so thrilled, Helene! Thank you so much! I cannot wait to frame it and hang it in Mockingbird Hill Cottage.

    Oh my, She paints gorgeous roses! One of the things I dearly wish I could do was paint beautiful roses…lessons and practice didn’t help me much! :) Happy Thursday Claudia.

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
