POINSETTIA.. Oil...

Finally, a picture worth posting.. 

The familiar Poinsettia was named after the American minister to Mexico,

who discovered the plant there in 1828.

Dear Kathryn opened her wonderful art studio for Amy and me to try some oil painting.

Will post some others in the near future..

This picture was based on a card by Cheryl English..

I like the boldness and colors..

Thanks for visiting.
