Heavenly Hydrangea Oil on panel, 9x12 |
Each day now is SO full of yard work in preparation for our annual 4th of July party. In fine tuning every flower bed, I could see the need for just a few more annuals. I need things that will be even more beautiful by August - when we have another event planned. So, while on a trip to the local nursery today, I spotted these beautiful, white hydrangea. They are very tall already, and in a very large pot. My daughter and I had our hands full of a few more annuals, three more perennials and several unusual herbs, so I didn't pick this one up. After planting all the rest - and thinking of the one left behind, I came in and painted it! I have a lot of flowers, and any time I come across a variety I do not already have - I pick it up! I guess I am an avid collector of flowers and plants. I am heading back up to that nursery in the morning to pick this baby up, too. I am thinking of planting it somewhere near the pool.......This is my 172nd painting in 172 days. What new adventure will tomorrow bring?
