This is a hexagonal canvas with a still life of gerbera daisies, sunflowers, and chamomile in a glass vase. I was finding that the oil pastels I was previously using were extremely crumbly and messy, and I was seeking out an alternative that was still water soluble. Enter Caran d'Ache wax crayons! I like the firmness and finer control of these crayons over oil pastels and the detail it allowed me to use. These were drawn from fresh flowers I picked up at the grocery store on a whim. The chamomile was a last minute decision to fill it out without just adding ferns. I kind of adore those stupid little white flowers milling about, bumping into the more majestic beasts around them and just interrupting spaces and getting in the way. They have every right to be here just like the daisies and sunflowers. In the language of flowers, chamomile represents "energy in adversity". I like their moxie.

I attended the University of Houston school of Fine Arts for a bachelor's in Studio Art - Painting, and graduated from that in 20012. I soon earned my teaching certificate, got my first job as a teacher in Pasadena, TX, then discovered I was expecting son #1. After a long hiatus in which I honed my teaching skills and adapted to motherhood (and popped out a second boy as well), I have been trying to get back in touch with the joy painting once brought me. I am finally happy as I work instead of stressing about keeping up with the imaginary Jones's in my mind.
