Library series of paintings

I painted these paintings for submission to our local writers’ guild annual anthology. I hope some of them will be accepted. I took all of these pictures at our local library and then painted them in gray scales.

Zinnia, Butterfly's Favorite

Butterfly's Favorite

This picture was taken in my garden.  The zinnias are planted behind the feathery limbs of the asparagus on the outer edge of my garden. I took the picture between a break in the asparagus as to not scare the butterfly away. I was surprised at the misty effect it gave the rest of the flowers.
