The beautiful floral oil painting shows several types of flowers including the amazing red poppies that are our theme flower this year. About the Artist: Phyllis Ekleberry was born and raised on a cattle ranch in the Texas Panhandle. Phyllis has used art to manage her physical adversities, placing one goal at a time in the forefront and striving to meet that goal. She obtained her Artisan's Certificate and her Teacher's Certificate from Genesis in the 1990s. She went on to receive her Master Zhostovo Artist Certification after studying under Master Artist and Teacher Slava Letkov from Russia. Phyllis was the first U.S. citizen to obtain this coveted accreditation. Her favorite quote from Émile Zola is "If you ask me what I came to do in this world, I, an artist, will answer you: I am here to live out loud."
