Pink Tulips by Kelley Mohs

This painting Pink Tulips with from a photograph my mom took in the Skagit Tulip Festival.  I always loved this painting.  For at least the last year of my mom’s life it hung in her kitchen.  I always loved it.  I recently inherited it from my dad and it hangs in my home.

One of the reasons I loved this painting so much is that it reminded me of a painting my mother sold to a German Art Gallery in the 1970’s.  It had a German woman working in a field with green hues.  It reminded me how life comes full circle sometimes.  The colors had changed, but my mom was still inspired by a sole woman working in the fields forty years later.
