I feel in love with what I thought was a beautiful stained glass image of poppies from Brenda Henning. But what I found out was these graceful flowers were a quilt patter (from master quilt maker Brenda Henning) that looks like stained glass!!! WOW!!
I wanted to paint these poppies... then I found more:
Like this stunning Sunflower!
So, I called Mrs. Henning and asked if I could paint her treasures. She responded, “Sure! Knock your socks off!”
You can find her original work on her website: http://www.bearpawproductions.com/index.php .
My paintings are not exact duplicate... I feel every artist has their own style which they need to express. Still, I wanted to stay very close so anyone can see the resemblance.
All of the paintings in this series are painted on heavy 140 pound paper with acrylic-metallic paints, lined in ink and measure 8 X 10. All are framed.
Mrs. Henning's series has 4, I added one more: The Double Sunflower!
Originally, her double sunflower was a table runner, which is also quilted!
Many thanks to Brenda Henning for permission to paint this series and more!
Next, I plan to introduce you to more artists, through my paintings.
As always, these paintings are for sale. They are all framed, but on back of each painting is a note of appreciation to Brenda Henning and their number in my series of 5.
Thank you and enjoy!
