framed 10 × 10 original pastel This plein air painting was done onsite at a local place whose owner plants acres of flowers just to make the world more beautiful. It is titled “Flower Hearted” after a poem written by Nakita Gill.

“I will not give up the flowers in my heart just because the world is a hard place.

The world is only a hard place because it needs more flower-hearted people.”
