JOHNNY JUMP-UPS
100 Paintings in 100 Days Challenge
'Inspirations from a Back Yard'

'Johnny Jump-Ups'
Oil 5 x 7
09/100
Day 09
These tiny little flowers always put a smile on
my face. Even though I only planted them once about
twelve years ago, they pop up in unexpected places
somewhere different each Spring.
This year I was pleasantly surprized to find a large
mound of them in my front flower bed!

Lovely. These have been some of my favorite flowers for as long as I can remember.
Stunning in its beautiful simplicity, Claire. Are they really called Johnny Jump-Ups?
Thanks, everyone. Sherry - I have always known these little flowers to be Johnny Jump-Ups or violas.
Very nice work.
I have seen them before, they look like miniature pansies. Your tiny bottle holding them is so well painted!
Great job on the glass.
Great mood you have portrayed with this painting, great painting Claire!
Beautiful flowers in your garden, I have a row of these in my garden, I hope they self seed too.
I have these flowers in my yard too, I love their cheerful little faces, and many different color combinations. Your painting of them is just perfect.
