8 New Cherry Blossom Studies

By Artbycedar

By popular demand:

Here is a continuation of my exploration of the cherry blossom theme–8 studies that are striking and colorful. I haven’t yet decided if I’m going to use any of these studies as the basis for larger paintings, but each is a small work of art in its own right!

These are inspired by this big old cherry tree I used to have in my back yard in Maryland. It was glorious every spring, and I spent many hours sitting in its shade on a carpet of pink blossoms.

The white is versatile, so they can be framed to fit in with any decor. All of these paintings will be available in my Summer Sale which starts this Saturday morning, June 21st! These studies will be on sale for only $100, *and* I will be paying the cost of both sales tax and shipping during the sale, which goes for one month. I’m excited to be offering great deals on original art for people’s homes! It’s my way of giving back to all those who have supported my work in ways big and small. Can’t wait for it to begin!
