The poinsettia's first association with Christmas began in 16th century Mexico. From the 17th century, Franciscan friars there included the plants in their Christmas celebrations. The star-shaped leaf is said to symbolize the Star of Bethlehem, (thus my title) and the red color represents the blood sacrifice of Jesus. This beautiful flower is still a key feature in Christmas decorations everywhere. This watercolor is a close-up of a blossom from one of my own Christmas poinsettias.
I have been seriously involved in watercolor painting for the last 20 years following retirement from my public school teaching career. Having the time to paint, along with the freedom from the need to make a living at the same time, has opened many wonderful new opportunities, friendships and experiences for me. I am a frequent exhibitor in art shows at the local, regional, state and national levels, having been honored to receive numerous awards for my work. My painting style is realistic. I am drawn to detail and favor the use of vivid color. I enjoy painting a variety of subject matter, but the glorious world of nature is what seems to suit me best. Many of my paintings reflect time spent outdoors, especially in the mountains...
