Delicate Dance, double hibiscus flower

"Delicate Dance"  © Fawn McNeill 2009
​"You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing"  Psalm 30:11

      Lovely shades of peach, champagne, red, and even yellow (occasionally) all bloom on one bush near my carport.  It started as a small plant 20 years ago and now is taller than me. We were amazed as it blossomed in so many different colors. I'm sure the flower shop we purchased it from grafted it, but the different colors of flowers have always been random -- scattered throughout the whole plant, not just on one side, or off of one branch as you would expect. 
​    I created this painting just after my husband underwent the first of two brain surgeries.  It was amazing to watch his brain rewire and memories to come back to him over the next couple of years.  He is a true miracle!
       I worked from photos of the plant when it was not very tall. The flowers swayed in the wind as if dancing and praising our creator. So, I tipped the flower more upward than sideways for a dramatic effect: as if it were singing to the sky.
