Through the Garden
Oil on panel, 20x16 |
Last August, in the heat of summer, we vacationed up by Lake Erie. On a day trip to the Henry Ford Museum, we went through the beautiful homes in Greenfield Village. This magnificent garden is between the Cotswold Cottage and it's barn. The garden was absolutely busting with blooms! I LOVE to be surrounded by these flowers, and to paint them is second nature. Today was very full, and as time was short - I painted this one fast and loose, using my palette knife where needed. I used the sides of various brushes for the many flowers - making them much faster to paint than they may look. Painting 74 in as many days :)
