The amazing art of Flora Doehler


Floral Awakening 
Acrylic on Canvas

(No one paints flowers
like Flora.  Her flowers
leap off the canvas and feel
like you are right there with them.
The joy and passion she feels
for the natural world is such
a pleasure to see, and her use
of colour is so inspiring to me.) 

If you are ever in Bear River, you have got to check out
Flora Doehler's work.  She is a superb artist, and has
paintings in her studio, and in the art gallery in Bear River.
We made the drive to see her and her husband, Larry,
and were so happy to spend an evening with Flora,
Larry, and their son Jessie.  

So much fun. I always find Flora's work inspiring
and energizing.  Her love of flowers sings from her
work, and keeps you wanting to see more, and
more.

Have a loving your life day.

Barbara, thank you for the kind words.
It was so uplifting to visit with you and Steven again. It may only be face to face for a few hours every year, but it's so memorable.
I'm proud of your work at the college and of your wonderful paintings. You have such great stories about your art forays all over the world.
Thanks for your friendship. <3
