It was a sunny spring afternoon here in Oregon, I had a black gessoed canvas which had been waiting for my attention for several months. The time had come to do something with it. I put in a favorite Bon Jovi tape and began painting and dancing, then she blossomed!
Her name was chosen based on a beautiful poem which fit her mood. Poem below.
Acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas, 8" square, wired and ready to hang.

I grew a rose once more to please mine eyes.
All things to aid it--dew, sun, wind, fair skies--
Were kindly; and to shield it from despoil,
I fenced it safely in with grateful toil.
No other hand than mine shall pluck this flower, said I,
And I was jealous of the bee that hovered nigh.
It grew for days; I stood hour after hour
To watch the slow unfolding of the flower,
And then I did not leave its side at all,
Lest some mischance my flower should befall.
At last, oh joy! the central petals burst apart.
It blossomed--but, alas! a worm was at its heart!
