SOLD

This painting sold last summer to a couple here in Colorado Springs.  When they purchased it I asked them if they were gardeners, or buying it as a gift for gardeners.  They told me that they had lost their home in one of the two fires we've had in the last five years and this represented them digging back their lives.  (More than 700 homes were lost in our two fires.)  I love it when I get to meet the client who buys a painting, but this represents so much.  I was humbled.

I painted this awhile ago when out with my plein air group, Garden Artists.  We've met every Tuesday and Thursday morning, from May to September, for the last 10 - 12 years.  We paint in local parks, gardens, homes, museums;  anywhere that we can make arrangements.  Come join us if you live near by!  We now have a FaceBook page.

I love gardening.  My husband and I have a great backyard garden which I've painted and posted about many times.  I do have a watering can.  It mostly gets used on the upper deck where the hose and sprinkler system don't reach!
