Camellia:Before the Frost by Virginia Fine Artist Cathyann Burgess

Before the Frost©2013C.L.Burgess 8x6 oil on wood



My camellias were in full bloom before this blast of cold came through Virginia. Did a small plein air sketch in oil on wood. Too delicate to remove, this flower needs to painted while still on the larger bush.

What beautiful pinks in this flower. It makes me happy. Considering we are waiting for snowmaggedon here, it's nice to see a beautiful flower.
