A Walk in the Garden

This series of paintings is about my love of nature, and especially my love of flowers. I have a desire for gardening that is close to my love of art in strength. This passion pulls me out into the yard with hands that itch to dig in the dirt, and an impatience to see those first blooms arrive every spring. I started this series of paintings in the winter when the light was dim, and the sun hid from me. My flowers lay dormant, and so did my spirit. So I brought it back with each and every painting I finished. It was spring once more, and the sun began to shine again.
