I just finished this little painting.  One has to paint quickly if you are going to paint cherry blossoms.  They just want to fall, so bad ;-)  I have photographed the step by step process of painting flowers on my blog, http://margaretaycock.blogspot.com  if you would like to see the process of oil painting these flowers.  

This is a medium size canvas 11x14 original oil painting. 

Any auctions on my ebay site are with no reserve.

A portion of the proceeds on the sale of the painting will go to St Judes.

I have noticed a lot of Chinese knock offs and outright copies of artists who work hard at their craft.  Please do your best to support those of us who are the original creators of these pieces.  If someone is selling a painting for the cost of the canvas alone, you may be getting a copy.  ( although some of us put a very low priced piece on auction to draw people into our ebay Galleries so that isn't always the case. ) I encourage you to do a little research before you buy and of course, I encourage you to buy from me :-). When you purchase from me you are getting a one of a kind, unique, hand painted, original oil painting, conceived and executed by me.

I support St Judes to honor the memory of my dad who always supported them as he felt such gratitude that his children were born healthy that he wanted to give hope to those who were not so fortunate.
