IXORA

Diane Mannion, Ixora, #22, 3.5x2.5" oil on linen/mounted


Ixora, subject for today's painting, snipped from a plant outside my door.  Popular bush in Florida.  Friends have an ixora wall about eight feet high and four feet thick, perfectly groomed, which forms an outside party room.  Beautiful at night decorated with tiny white lights.

This is the 22nd day of Leslie Saeta's 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge.  And this is also 2014 Snippet Series #22.

Love the color of the flower reflecting in the glass rim. This is a beauty!
