Art in Bloom 2010 For
2010, the Museum of Fine Arts gave me another challenge. They asked me to
interpret the whole |

Art In Bloom 2009 Tim
was asked to create one interpretation for two paintings:
For the beautiful painting, “Near Riec, Finistere”, on the left, by Henry Moret, I used pink carnations sprinkled with blue delphinium petals to interpret the shadowed road. Dried palm stems along with 2 toned red carnations made the house. Fern, with multiple shades of alstroemeria captured the surrounding landscape. A single delphinium, along with black ting ting finish the arrangement. Art In Bloom 2008
Arabs Charging Through a Forest Path
By
Eugene Fromentin of the
horses. Red carnations represent the festival participants. The use of ferns
and schefflera are used for the forest. The finishing touch, firecracker plant
stems depicting the fireworks and gunshots heard visually in this
painting.” _____________________ Art In Bloom 2006
Woman By The Sea By Alfred Stevens I used purple irises to capture the velvety tone of the woman’s outfit. The pink carnations represent her ruffled pink blouse. The bamboo reed is her walking stick. While blue stones in the vase represent the water. The arrangement sets on antique linen piece capturing her hankie, the sand and the time period.”

Floral Interpretation of The
Fortune Teller by John Opie _____________________ Art in Bloom 2000
Floral Interpretation of Julie
LeBrun as Flora by Elizabeth Louise Vigee-LeBrun Since this is a large powerful painting, I knew my interpretation had to be large and powerful. It also had to capture the wonderful flowing femininity of the model. Starting with a wire dress form that I anchored to a wooden base, I covered this in plastic screening. Each opening in the plastic screening was large enough to hold a water vial. 15 dozen white fugi mums were each put in a vial of water. Each vial was specially placed to form the beautiful white chiffon dress in the painting. Next a wicker basket was added to the top of the six-foot interpretation, loaded with pink roses and greens. A piece of wired red chiffon and a heart shaped wreath made with lemon leaves finished my most spectacular Art in Bloom to date!

For the “Untitled German Landscape” by Wilhelm Morgner on the right side, I used peace lily leaves with dried palm fronds down the center of each leaf to capture the foreground landscape. Amber alstroemeria and bamboo depict the building along with the tall stacks.
Adoration of the Child By Master of the
Greenville Tondo In
mythology, Mary is represented by roses. Here roses with blue delphiniums
are used. Joseph is
represented by lilies, along with purple statice for color. Miniature
ivory roses capture the Christ child. An orchid captures the figure in the
full moon. _____________________ Art In Bloom 2003
City Window Series: Still Life With Fruit by Leon Kroll
Floral interpretation:
Due to the depth of this
painting, I did a 2 dimensional interpretation. In the foreground,
floral fruit done in mums, gerber daisies, roses and palm fronds; are
nestled in a Sydni pottery bowl. Beyond the floral fruit and window
sill, liatrus captures the vertical color of the draperies, while
snapdragons and mums form the buildings and snow covered roof tops.
