Afternoon
Reflections by Rachel Siegrist
"This swan resides,
along with a few others, on a beautiful, peaceful pond set in the middle
of Cave Hill Cemetery, located in Kentucky. It’s a lovely place to
visit, watching the swans glide gracefully across the water, reflecting
the many colors of surrounding trees, with a quaint bridge leading to
the cave in the hillside across the way".
"Being an admirer of
Flamingos, I found this trio quite intriguing with their gorgeous pink
coloring being lit by the sun, giving a most wonderful glowing
appearance. They formed a perfect composition as they interacted with
each other, making it a moment it time to capture and paint".
"This painting
was inspired by a photo taken during my first trip to Southern
California. The statue stood amidst a beautiful sun-filled garden in
the yard adjacent to where we were staying. As an avid gardener,
this beautiful scene beckoned for me to capture it in miniature"
