I know Mimosa trees are sometimes considered a nuisance type of tree. But they have beautiful limbs growing in all kinds of directions... and those fluffy pink flowers at some point during the season. I grew up climbing in one near my home in Smyrna, so I have always had a special place for them in my heart. This one was along the bank of Lake Lanier in Northern Georgia. I love the different type of green it has in the leaves against the other green in the background of what probably was an oak tree!
This painting just came home from the Booth Museum's Annual BAG (Booth Artist Guild) Show. It is an honor to have a painting chosen to hang in the Booth Museum in the Downstairs Gallery, and along with another chosen one, "Rocks & Reflections." The painting is for sale through me. It was previously in the SAAG National Show in Blue Ridge, GA (2023) with two other of my paintings. The show is held in the Historic Courthouse, Blue Ridge Mountains Arts Association (BRMAA) for about a month. SAAG stands for Southern Appalachian Artist Guild and is a wonderful part of the BRMAA organization.
