Garden + Art = Joy!

How my garden inspires me...
When two loves collide, like gardening and blogging, happiness is found. When two loves like gardening and painting collide, for me its pure joy! With all the snow about and little chance to get outdoors, I decided to get the paintbrushes out instead. Bring the love of birds and my garden inside. To always have around no matter what the weather....
I love painting especially things I find beautiful and interesting, maybe something that stirs my emotions or provokes feelings or a happy memory. In this case the inspiration was just something I Love...my garden!

  4. Julia, now I know what you meant in your comment. Painting is like that for me too. Pure joy and a separation of all the responsibilities and duties of life. Your bird painting is really good and I bet you were in another world while painting.

  5. You are very talented! I love your painting and the colors you chose to use.
    We made it home from the garden show just as the snow started, so it was perfect timing. It's so pretty, but I'm hoping spring isn't too far off.
