Original artwork description:

There's a lot going on in this painting. I absolutely love daffodils because they are the first thing to come up in our garden and they are a little sign of growth to come. The penny farthing bike is a symbol of wanderlust for me. I painted this on a canvas that I took to Italy with me in 2001 and was the start of my training as an artist. It's traveled across continents, lived in my home, was carried through marriage and child birth, survived fire and flood, and now exists as the substrate of this work. There's something really beautiful about this Spring inspired piece that speaks to rebirth rooted in such a rich life.
