"Freshly Gathered" Original Painting #18 of 52 Weeks of Colorful Joy 2026

Original Painting #18 of 52 Weeks of Colorful Joy 2026

This original floral painting is part of my 52 Weeks of Colorful Joy series, an ongoing project celebrating color, creativity, and joy, with a brand-new original painting released every Friday throughout 2026.

This week’s piece is an 8x10 inch mixed media painting on wood panel, filled with whimsical spring florals. A colorful composition that feels joyful, hopeful, and full of life. Full of layered textures and playful brushwork.

The 0.75 inch wood panel sides are painted in white and pink stripes, adding a charming, unexpected detail and allowing the piece to be displayed beautifully without a frame. It’s designed to bring color and happiness from every angle.

Finished with a protective semi-gloss varnish, the surface has a subtle sheen that enhances the vibrancy of the colors while helping preserve the artwork over time. Colors may vary slightly from screen/photos to the original painting.

Perfect for adding a fresh pop of spring to a gallery wall, bookshelf, or cozy corner.
