Bed of Tulips

Here's a seasonal image for a very blustery, sleety, wet spring day!

Bed of Tulips (Oil on linen, 16 x 16)

I have to admit, it'll be a while yet till the tulips poke their noses out of the ground in my garden.  These paintings are of bulbs which I've brought back over the years from Holland. I like to try out a few of the more interesting varieties and see what comes up. The pictures on the packet are always so incredibly exotic.

Strangely, they always seem to turn out mostly red....
