Pretty Pink, acrylic, 12"x 12" canvas, mixed media,

"Pretty Pink"
 
Thoughts and ideas gathered by the drying Fall Zinnias 
Thoughts gathered as in a bundle of dried pointed Zinnia flowers
Their sharp dried edges
 
Their dried warm hues
Their long usually sturdy stems falling with the first flakes of snow
Zinnias not to be mistaken for Daisies have their own personality even if dried and now beginning to wither
 
Their personality still there
Their warm hues
Warm the heart as they still try to toss colour around the garden
 
I gather them as I gather my inspiration
I love how strong they are being tossed by wind and now snowfall
 
Their personality still there
Their warm hues
Warming the heart as they toss their dried warm colours
