  12. This was a very difficult choice, I truly love them all... but if I had to pick one, I would choose the "Winged Maple Seeds". Exquisite!!

    ReplyDelete
  13. Hooray, the Logs are back, THE LOGS ARE BACK!!!
    My personal favorite from your collection.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Oh wow! I love them all too, but the Robins are definitely calling my name!

    ReplyDelete
  15. The feathers really tickle my fancy!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I do love those beetles! (And the bird's nest and my daughter voted for the feathers and the moth, but our official vote is going to be for the beetles.)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Well, it's a difficult decision. They are all wonderful. Leaning towards the maiden hair.

    ReplyDelete
  18. You are amazing.
    I find your work so inspiring and your style so delicate and magical. I have long-loved the way you see things and put them to paper.
    What a dream to have the possibility to "win" one from you.
    Choosing a favorite is not easy because they are incredible all together.....but....
    TOP on my list is the Beetles & Weevils, with the Bird Nest a close second and the Hornet Moths close behind.
    So wonderful that you are offering these prints again...they are exquisite....thank you!

  19. I've long been drooling over your work in Etsy. I think (though it's a very hard call!) that I love the birch trees best of all... ~Kirsten/Arabesque Aromas

    ReplyDelete
  20. I'm with everyone... their all wonderful and so great altogether! Especially love the moth.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Oh, I'm so glad to see that you have prints again. They're all so lovely; it's hard to pick a favorite. However, the delicate legs of the Blue Wing Butterfly Specimen put such a smile on my face, that one must be my favorite.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Hello Golly,
    I realy love those new paintings. They are beautiful! But i think a like al your paintings ;)
    The most beatiful is, i think, the blue wing butterfly. I love butterfly's (:

  23. Hard to choose !
    Beetles ? Nest ? Acorns ? Winged Maple Seeds ?
    Let's say Beetles 'cause the composition of 'entomologistic' frames are fun.
    Love the way you use watercolor,
    Best wishes from France,

    ReplyDelete
  24. I adore all of them,
    but I especially love, love, love the beetles and weevils.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Hello Holly,
    I'm so happy to see that you are offering prints again. It was a very difficult decision, but I think my favorite is the feather print.

    ReplyDelete
  26. the blue winged butterfly spoke to me as I observed the intricate but simple pattern that weaves through each wing . . . as if to tell a story of the journey it has made thus far . . .

    ReplyDelete
  27. I love the Yellow throats bird print because it also has the little yellow ladybirds and it is just so lovely. Of course they are all beautifully painted and make a great set.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Love, love, love the yellowthroats! It was really hard to choose only one, though.
    Nice work Golly!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I have several of these in your fabric version, tucked away in my sewing cupboard. I'm looking forward to putting them together in a quilt this fall.

    I have not seen the acorn print yet. I think it's pretty sweet and simple.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Blue wing butterfly is my favorite. I just love the natural colors!

    ReplyDelete
  31. The birch trees. I love them all, but I'm especially drawn to trees.

    ReplyDelete
  32. beautiful. Of course I want one! They would make great Christmas presents, too. Will have to look into that!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Lovely! I really like the maidenhair fern, winged maple, and the mossy log.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Well that was silly. I was the first to post a comment but didn't mention my favorite! Once again, I wanted to say that the prints are beautiful which is no surprise. I could be happy with any of them but I particularly love "winged maple seeds".

    ReplyDelete
  35. Thank you for the generous giveaway! A year ago we did a bit of remodeling in our living room, including adding some original art, including some of your work. It would be wonderful to add the maidenhair fern to our collection! Congrats to whoever wins.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Hi Golly, you generous woman!! Well without a doubt I knew immediately that my choice is the birch trees. Awesome art!! Please toss my name in to the mix for a chance to win your glorious giveaway. Thanks! *smiles* Norma

    ReplyDelete
  37. I could never pick a favorite. If I'm lucky enough to win any of these I'd be happy. Fingers crossed!!!

    ReplyDelete
  38. My prefer is beetles ans weevils, merci!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Not fair making us choose a favorite!! Love them all.
    If I have to pick, then it's a tie between the three feathers and the eggs in nest... but really...

    ReplyDelete
  40. Ooh - should it be the nest or the feathers? They're both so beautiful. They're ALL so beautiful. I'll go for the feathers!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Amazing artistry.. My favorite is the Butterfly :)

    ReplyDelete
  42. They are all amazing, Holly!
    So difficult to choose just one. I am partial to the nest, though.....

    ReplyDelete
  43. They are all my favorite! Love your art.

    ReplyDelete
  44. An amazing collection :) I love ferns so it would have to be that one. Thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  45. How does one choose? They are all absolutely beautiful! I think after much umming and ahhing, I would love the blue wing butterfly specimen. Stunning, stunning work! Thank you for the opportunity. :) x

    ReplyDelete
  46. oh this is exciting, I think I am going to get a few for my wall. I like the nest, the freathers, maidenhair and the beetles.... impossible to choose but maybe the maidenhair brings back memories for me.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Oh, wow! I'm such a fan. The agony of picking just one (for now). I'm going with Winged Maple Seeds. LOVE IT! And it reminds me of my kids watching them twirl to earth on our front lawn.

    ReplyDelete
  48. So beautiful and difficult to choose a favourite... it's a tie between the eggs and the feathers. The eggs in the nest remind me of 'no other planet can be as beautiful as this one'. The feathers remind me of my love bird that I dearly love and he loves the make papersnippers for me to use as nesting materials.

    Glad I happened to come across your site :-)

  50. They are all so lovely but my favorite is the fern.

    ReplyDelete
  51. I love all of your work! Such beautiful interpretations of nature. Very hard to pick a favorite, but, if I have to, I choose the bees (in honor of our new adventure in beekeeping). Thanks for sharing your talent with all of us!

    ReplyDelete
  52. I LOVE all of your work but I have to choose the acorns - that was how I found your blog, a long time ago.

    Thanks for this new giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  53. The acorns please! And thank you for this wonderful giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  54. I love all of your work, but if I must pick, it would be Robin's Bird.

    ReplyDelete
  55. What a lovely giveaway. It would be a hard choice to pick only one!!!

    ReplyDelete
  56. I love all of them but my favorite has to be beetles and weevils.

    ReplyDelete
  57. I LOVE the birds nest print. It's beautiful!

    ReplyDelete
  58. I love them all and it would be hard to choose, but I'd like the chance!

    ReplyDelete
  59. If i have to pick, i will say the blue winged butterfly BUT I MUST SAY... I LOVE THEM ALL. your work is wonderful!

    ReplyDelete
  60. When I was growing up in New England, the forsythia bush was one of the first flowers to bloom after the long, cold, grey winters. The bright yellow blossoms represent spring to me so that print seems especially lovely to me. They are all so pretty.

    ReplyDelete
  61. When I think of Etsy, I think of Golly Bard!

    It's not nearly as nice as owning a print or an original I am sure...but I really like clicking that little Heart on a beautiful painting from your shop...and I especially love including your paintings in Treasuries!

    I am looking forward to owning an original some day, my dear. Congratulations on your new prints...they are gorgeous. (Of course!)

    Best wishes,
    Susan Sorrell Hill (alias Aunt Soup)

    ReplyDelete
  63. ah, all so lovely! hard to choose...hornet moth & maidenhair fern though really sent me reeling.

    i do love all your work.
    take care, p

    ReplyDelete
  64. each is its own beautiful work of art. the spiky nest with the pale blue speckeled ova caught my eye . . . and I like all the eyes peering back at me from that stand of white birch. they blink when I do. flirty little wood nymphs

  70. All wonderful! But I would have to say the feathers..... to me they are the "signature" piece :)

    ReplyDelete
  71. My oh my!! How could I ever choose a favorite! I love them all. If I HAD to choose, I think I'd pick the maiden hair fern. Delicate and lovely, which pretty much sums up all of your work!

    ReplyDelete
  72. You are my favorite artist and I have so been hoping you would offer prints! They are all so beautiful, but I like the yellowthroats and the bird nest the best. The green-yellow and the turquoise blue are the colors of my living room. I think if I won a print, I would definitely have to buy the other to go with it! :) Thank you for the opportunity!

    ReplyDelete
  73. Wow!
    I love the Beetles and Weevils print!
    Thank you!

  81. Wow what a great giveaway! We have made a quilt with several of your woodland fabrics and to have a print with it would be so exciting for my daughter (she has decided the quilt is hers!!) We love all the designs, it's sooooo hard to chose - we love the bees, the acorns and the nest oh, and all the rest too! You choose for us if we win!

    ReplyDelete
