There’s something so soothing about a quiet lake surrounded by soft wildflowers, and “Lakeside in Bloom” was painted from that peaceful place in my heart. The gentle blues and whites of the wildflowers felt like the perfect touch against the calm water and muted countryside beyond. I wanted to capture that stillness and beauty—the kind that makes you pause and just breathe.
This original oil painting is done on wood, which adds such a lovely texture and warmth. It measures 9 x 7 x 5/8 inches, with the sides painted in antique gold leaf for a soft, vintage finish. It comes signed and ready to hang, just as it is.
“Lakeside in Bloom” is one of five pieces in my Whispers of the Countryside collection. Each one tells its own gentle story of English country life. I’m sure once you see them, you’ll want to bring them all home.
I truly hope this piece brings a little peace and beauty to your day, just as it did for me while creating it.
