In the Greenhouse

 

There is nothing like a rainy day for painting in a greenhouse!  Chased inside by the lightning and thunder overhead, the heavy downpour was delightful as it hit the nursery roof.  One by one, my artist friends left, and I was the last one on site as I finished this second painting.  Mom and I chose some gorgeous, very wet, snapdragons to take home afterwards.  I do love the floral beauty at Rosehill Gardens, and will certainly come back again!  Painting number 3747 in 3747 days. 

Rosehill Gardens

With thunder, lightning and a downpour at my back - I rushed through a quick paint at Rosehill Gardens today!  Though I've driven by here many times, this is my first time on site to paint.  The Monday Morning Watercolorists met here for our weekly paint out, and as the thunder increased, the artists started to seek shelter. Not wanting to vacate my spot before I had what i needed - I stayed long enough to get rained on!  I love the thrill of racing the weather to capture the moment!  And the storm didn't prevent me from taking home some beautiful old fashioned snapdragons for my beds! What a gorgeous place!  Painting number 3746 in 3746 days.
