This is an original oil painting on panel signed by Laurel. It is in a solid walnut hand crafted frame with 18k gold leafing and carved corners. The outside measurements of the frame are 31.5" x 24.5".

This painting was shown in the Salmagundi Club in New York City in an American Impressionist exhibit. I grew these flowers in my front yard and painted them in the back yard as they were backlit by the sun, causing the blooms and the table cloth to glow.

Our newspapers and television keep giving us the message: What counts is to be known, praised, and admired. Still, real greatness is often hidden, humble, simple, and unobtrusive. It has become difficult to trust ourselves and our actions without public affirmation. We must have strong self-confidence combined with deep humility. Some of the greatest works of art and the most important works of peace were created by people who had no need for the limelight. They knew that what they were doing was their call, and they did it with patience, perseverance, and love. -Henri Nouwen
