    I find all three equally beautiful paintings and impossible to pick one, but because you have asked us to, I would have to say "White Flower". I love the simplicity of the white objects and delicate manner in which you have painted the porcelain and flower. The background pattern gives it an interesting backdrop and the neutral palette is gorgeous.Congratulations on your five year blog anniversary!

    I love them all, Diane. Gee if I happen to win, it would be hard to choose. I like them each for different reasons. Maybe #1... or #2. #3 is splendid too!

    I was going to say the middle one, now I think the first one.
    No, the 3rd one.

    I must agree that a choice is hard to make, as I have yet to see one of your paintings that has not spoken to me. But, in the spirit of the challenge, I guess I would have to go with White Flower. I love how the floral background mirrors the white flower, and the detail of the vase. It is a fabulous composition of design and hues. And... what can I say, while it is beautifully contemporary, it reminds me of my grandmother.
    What a wonderful gesture to your collectors to do this for a lucky winner. Thanks.

    It has been fun, educational, inspirational...following your blog. Which do I like best... White flower, because of what I think is your signature background.

    It is very difficult to choose! If I had to though I would go with "On for the Road". I love the hot colors and the way your eye flows through and around the painting. Congrats on five years! Amazing!

    All are wonderful - but the one that speaks to me the loudest is number 3 the cobalt and the sunflowers - Kansas is the Sunflower State - that part of it I love! All the colors are extremely nice!

    I'm having trouble deciding between Cobalt Clues and White Flowers... Both are beautiful! I think that the colorful cloth on Cobalt Clues is going to sway me to that one!

    Congratulations on your bloggiversary! All three are great but I remember seeing 'White Flower' pop up on my screen when you first posted it and being so in love with it! Still am! That would be my pick. :)

    Happy Bloggerversary! I like them all, but I think I like White Flower the best. I love the pitcher and the flower and how clean they look against the background.

    Always look forward to your blog in my mailbox.

    Wow, five years blogging! Congratulations to you and to me for recently discovering you! I love all your paintings. If I had to choose just one of the three florals above, I think "White Flower" is most representative of your unique painting style with the patterned background. The white flower and pitcher vase is truly elegant! Thanks for sharing Diane!

    Hi Diane. Happy 5th year!! I would say the far right one for me. I love sunflowers and I love the way they spill out from the blue vase. I really like the blue background and the stripes in the table cloth. All 3 paintings are wonderful. xx
