"There's something about flowers that I find especially appealing and compelling, so I paint them. To me, they are some of God's very best work. After all, what's not to like? Their infinite variety and shapes, sizes and colors is everything to challenge and invigorate an artist's vision. And so I paint them...in my own unique and personal way. I also like the pictures that words can create. So I combine the two. Hang one of my pictures and you get double pleasure-something engaging to look at and something to tweak your mind. Quite simply, I seriously paint flowers with a lot of skill and a wry sense of humor. You'll have to be the judge of whether I successfully pull it off or not" - David Pazdernik
