First Blooms

Original Watercolor on paper 21.5″ x 14.25″| Inspired in New Harmony, IN

Painted during the First Brush of Spring plein air event in New Harmony, Indiana, First Blooms captures the quiet joy of early spring — that moment when the world begins to soften and bloom again after a long winter.

This delicate white blossom, set against a moody, textured backdrop, evokes both renewal and reflection. For the artist, it also holds the warmth of friendship and shared laughter — a memory of time well spent with fellow painters, welcoming spring’s arrival with brush in hand.

Full of soft layers and fresh light, this piece invites the viewer to pause, breathe deeply, and remember the beauty of beginnings.
