Painting in studio, working from photographs taken at Faust Park

SUMMARY OF PLACE:: The morning was clear, and the early morning sun was streaking across the scene.
INSPIRATION:: This woman (Clare) lovingly tends this public flower garden in the park. For the pleasure of all, she creates outdoor wildflower arrangements in a simple brown vase. The studio painting completed on Jan 20, 2007, "Log Cabin Arrangement", captures one of Clare's arrangements. I was inspired to capture the action of harvesting cut flowers, one of life's simple pleasures.
