Art Friday: Flowers in gardens and fields

George Marks (1857-1933) - The Rhododendron Walk
Art Friday: Flowers in gardens and fields

Todays paintings are for anyone needing a quiet and tranquil place to rest awhile. 

A place that is calm and peaceful, removing all those sad thoughts, bad news and world events that only bring heartbreak and replaces it with flowers, perfume and beauty. 

Lets all escape just for a while. 


Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

(John 14:27)

    Pretty! My favourites are "High Pastures", and the one by Mary Dipnall (ie the two ones with daisies - I love daisies!), and I also like the one showing the children gathering flowers. :) "Derbyshire" in Spring is another lovely one - the water looks so real - very talented!

      I really like the art of Mary Dipnall, I find it all very calm and peaceful. I might post a few on my Facebook page.

      That very first one could be in the Adelaide Hills, perhaps the Mount Lofty Nature park!!

    All these pictures are very peaceful. I just want to stop and soak them all in. I really like the picture with the daisies from Mary Dipnall. Simply stunning.

    I hope you have a blessed weekend.

    Blessings,
    Amy

    Crazy, but the last one really caught my eye. Like so many others I did like the daisies though =)
    His peace is wonderful - better than any other fix!
    love,

    My favorites are by Mary Dipnal, but the one by Michael James Smith of Derbyshire is also very good. :-)
