This weekend I was clearing up the garden and cutting back perennials in preparation for the great, garden winter sleep. At the same time I have been working on this painting depicting the complete opposite time of year when plants are growing vigorously and warm summer days lie ahead. Horticultural renewal is a magical process ❤️ 🌹This florist was setting up for Chelsea in bloom and I love all the horticultural clutter. Fingers crossed it’s finished for Open Studios 🎨 #garden #chelsea #chelseainbloom #horticulture #plants #stilllife #oilpainting #art #contemporaryart #oilonboard #seasons #renewal
