9"x9" | "Peonies brighten my day"

This is from a collection of 6 bold flower (and flower-adjacent) pieces I created in early January, 2026 during kid nap times while eagerly awaiting the end of winter break and the return of school :) 

DIMENSIONS
Painted portion is 9 x 9 inches. (The outer edge of paper is 12 x 12 inches, so there is a 1.5-inch white border around the painted part.) 
Each piece may have slight measurement imperfections given method of creation.

TITLE
Peonies brighten my day

DESCRIPTION
A couple dozen white and light-pink peony-like flowers emerge from an abstract glass vase; set against a teal and navy blue background.

MATERIALS
Acrylic on paper (Strathmore 400 series, acid-free, 246lb. paper) 
Acrylic paint overlaid with oil pastel after drying. Not set or cured, to preserve color integrity.

DATE
January, 2026

DISPLAY & CARE RECOMMENDATIONS
Display in frame with glass surface. A 12 x 12 (inch) frame with a mat opening of 10 x 10 (inch) would be perfect. It is recommended to use a mat so that there is space between the uncured oil pastel does not smudge the glass.
