The last week its been a challenge to cut a boquet because all the flowers are going to sleep.
I've collected my sweet pea seeds, the plants themselves dug back into the earth. And I hope you'll pardon the paint on my hand. I really do wash up before I cook dinner!
I did manage a late summer boquet, but most of the blooms come from my mother's beautiful garden. There's even a rogue grapefruit blossom there. The fragrance is heady and intoxicating.
I started out with a spoon for the sleeping flowers, but have been wanting to paint some canvases.
These are 'warm ups' five by seven inches. Acrylic and oil pastel on masonite board.
