renegade colors

Howardsville artist Pam Roland sent me this beautiful card with a poinsettia painting on the front. I loved it not just because the painting is beautiful (and Pam did it) but because it happens to include the colors I've been using all over the house this Christmas-- peach, yellow, red, and green. So pretty! And I think it's the yellows and yellow-greens that excite me most--because they're sort of outside the norm.

P.S. The greens in the little yellow watering can are mahonia, cryptomeria, and leatherwood.

And here's that same card used elsewhere.
