WELCOME TO THE PAINTED PETALTM ,        

A SUBSIDIARY OF  GAZEHOUND GALLERYTM

BLISS BY THE BLOSSOM...

The Painted Petal TM was created over the Spring and Summer of 2004-2005 when 

I realized that the Special Effects which I apply to my sighthound photography (please see

GAZEHOUND GALLERYTM   Home Page, with  Special Effects Art  and

Photo Gallery  pages), work equally well to lend flowers a whole new look.  

I believe Art can be used as a vehicle for Healing.  It can bring a changed energy into the

body.  It can bring peace into the mind, and can chemically cause a shift in mood and spirit.   My

Painted Petal artwork exists to bring hope and healing to those who are in pain--be it physical

or emotional--that their hurt is lessened, their struggle is forgotten, and they pick up their

life with renewed appreciation for all the miracles around them, previously unseen.

Help us keep our eyes open.  God's grace is all around us if we simply open our eyes and

hearts to receive it.  For the quieter we become, the more we are able to hear.

Please feel free to linger amongst the Painted Petals.   Enjoy your time meandering

through the Gardens and find your Bliss by the Blossom!!  The Painted Petal TM is a

Sanctuary for the Senses.   Come inside.  Enjoy!  Revive and Renew.  

All artwork on this page is for the purpose of showcasing my work for The Painted Petal TM.  

 If you are interested in purchasing a certain piece, please e-mail me and we may arrange

a custom printing for most images.
