This is a classic Fraktur inspired Theorem it is framed in a hand painted Grained Frame. The size of the Frame is 22 x 16 the thing that makes this a beautiful theorem is the spacing of all of the flowers and the bird. It gives contrast to the colors and makes each flower stand out on its own. These colors represent the bright colors used in frakturs.

I would like to announce that Historic Houses of Odessa has invited me this summer to have on Exhibit my Collection of Theorem Paintings. In the beautiful Bank Down Town Which is their Visitors Center is where the main exhibit is. I will be linking everyone to their website as soon as one of my lovely children come home and helps me with the technology aspect. In correlation to my work a gentleman has loaned his extensive private collection of antique theorems which are across the street in one of the historic houses. We also have set up a lovely show case of Theorem memorabilia and tools used in this art form. There will be move information to follow but thought I would give everyone a heads up.

Sorry it has been so long since last post I guess life just gets away from us in good and bad ways. Recently it has been good for me in the Theorem Painting and I started making some pillows from some beautiful fabrics I will show you at another time. The first painting here is a original design of a tree of life with dogs my favorite. The second is also an original design inspired from a Jacobean Embroidery Design. The third is a floral from a painting of horticultural florals and last of all another Design from a tapestry. It is amazing how many ideas are out there in history to just be made into something beautiful.
