Pink Saturday Picture and Flower Arrangement

Don't hesitate to join in the Pink Saturday fun.

This Saturday I am featuring a wonderful print signed by the artist. Her name is Beki Killorin and she is from Oklahoma. The painting is titled Jazzed for Summer. I took the following quote from the information on the back of the picture:

Her style brings a contemporary look to familiar subjects, imbuing birds, flowers and other images of the natural world with a unique life and spirit. Each work receives her special imprint...a small red dot that precedes her signature. It is an acknowledgement of God's ever-present and lasting love and an affirmation of the wonder of His creation.

I bought this picture at an auction raising money for Special Olympics. Using it as my inspiration I arranged the flowers in the other photo to compliment my picture. The vase is actually a plant. My husband says he thinks it is a palmetto bush. I bought it in a thrift store, so I really don't know what it is. It looks like all the stems have been cut off evenly. It was top heavy, so I turned a nut bowl upside down and super glued it on. I really like the effect. I shopped around for silk flowers as close to the print as I could find, and voila, my creation. It is sitting in the floor across from the Killorin print in the dining room where all the cows from Cow Parade live.

Now go to Beverly at How Sweet the Sound, and check out nearly 100 pinkies who are graciously showing their pink today. Beverly has hosted this Pink Saturday event for some time now. Thank you dear Beverly for all the work involved in this parade of pink treasures.
