This delightful floral arrangement is a celebration of dahlias in full bloom, presented in an elegant vintage porcelain pitcher adorned with delicate floral patterns. The vibrant pinks, creamy peaches, and soft whites of the dahlias create a lush, joyful palette that feels both romantic and refreshing. The interplay of textures—from the tightly layered pompon dahlias to the sprawling, feathery petals of the cactus varieties—gives the arrangement depth and movement.
The porcelain pitcher, with its fine details and soft curves, enhances the charm of the composition, infusing it with a sense of nostalgia and timeless beauty. The flowers cascade gently onto an antique silver tray below, creating an inviting, layered display. Scattered blooms, greenery, and buds add an organic touch, as though the bouquet is part of a freshly gathered garden harvest.
The soft pink background amplifies the arrangement's romantic atmosphere, allowing the vibrant dahlias to take center stage. The interplay of light and shadow highlights the delicate structure of each petal, giving the flowers a luminous quality.
Emotionally, this image evokes happiness, warmth, and the fleeting beauty of late summer. It feels like a celebration of life’s simple pleasures, capturing a moment of abundance and creativity. Perfect for brightening any space, this artwork brings both elegance and cheer, making it a timeless addition to any collection.

I hung my prints last weekend and love them in the guestroom! We are now going to paint a light green to sort of match what you display on your website.
I received mine! It's absolutely beautiful Christina!
I purchased the sunflower print and I hung it up in my sunflower bathroom! It looks beautiful!
I purchased a still life with flowers from Christina and it is absolutely stunning! Christina has a magic touch with her still life arrangements and amazing eye for color and detail. I can't wait to frame this and hang it in my bedroom.
I have purchased two of Christina’s prints, one of gourds and one of still life with flowers. They both are prominently displayed in my home! I have also enjoyed her greeting cards. Her eye for beauty is always reflected in her work.
She manages to create images fit for any occasion or mood. The whimsy of some of her work (miniature people with food) always makes me smile; and the her current flower series is simply captivating. I love that she is bringing her years of professional training to creating such beautify images - somehow she captures the magic in the moment.
Christina brings her expert photography skills to her new 'fine art' line and the photos are just gorgeous. Check them out!
Christina has such a wonderful eye and a love of food and flowers that comes through in her work. I've purchased gorgeous cards and prints for myself and as gifts, and I like the variety of sizes that are available. Her skill, artistry and joy are captured in each piece.
So, Doug bought me two pieces of Christina's art for Christmas: roasted, multi-colored carrots. I can't tell you how happy it makes me to see that pop of color when I turn the corner into the dining room. Cheerful, homey, and looks delicious: just like we hope our home and hospitality are!
My mom loved the peony photograph. She opened it on Christmas day and said, "Oh my, this is gorgeous!" It's now up on her wall where she can enjoy the photo and the memories it evokes of her grandfather, who grew an abundance of peonies in his small garden. Thank you!
I knew when I saw Brown Sugar Beach at the gallery that it had similar colors, but didn’t realize that the color scheme would tie together so well with our walls, floor, and furniture! At any rate, I’m really looking forward to enjoying and showing your artwork off to guests.
