“Daffodils” Contemporary Impressionistic Floral Pastel by Niki Gulley

February 20, 2024

“Daffodils” ©Niki Gulley

18″ x 24” pastel on paper

Daffodils are symbols of spring and in many cultures their blooms kick off the start of many festivals. For me they just seem to make me happy. The petals appear to dance in the breeze with the colors inviting you in for a closer look. Their beauty is fleeting though, so I had to capture them quick before they faded out until next year.
