Miniature Painting of Crocus
Thursday, May 22nd, 2008
“Crocus Center” original acrylic painting by Gail Niebrugge, sold.
Another miniature painting of the wildflower Crocus. I am fascinated by the beautiful brilliant center, and cast shadows. It is also referred to as the Pasque Flower, or Spring Crocus and can be found in late May and early June in dry or sandy soil in the interior of Alaska. Perfect for my yard which is along the shores of the Copper River in the Wrangell-St. Elias region of the interior of Alaska. Spring lasts two and a half weeks, a short time window to see this wildflower.
More tomorrow,
Gail Niebrugge, Alaska wildflower artist
