I came home a bit tired, but was excited to see how Margaret had finished off the background on what looked like this not so long ago when it left my studio ~
Here are orange scenes from gardens past ~

ReplyDeletemy mom would grow marigolds along the short sidewalk in front of our house long ago. my job was to weed them.

I love all those various splashes of orange in the garden. The word garden always makes me think of my grandfather. I was pretty young when he passed, but he had such a green thumb, and I remember puttering around with him in his rows of veggies.
ReplyDeleteLovely work! And a great idea for the AtoZ! Thank you for sharing!

How lovely! I think the orange in the mosaic is perfect for the garden, and I just love flowers! You've had quite a few!
ReplyDeleteWhen I think "garden," I think about greens and purples and reds and that wonderful smell of wet dirt. :)
ReplyDeleteYour mosaic is lovely. I really like the orange.
