Azaleas in My Garden

What a wonderful surprise the azaleas are beginning to bloom. The mild winter in the lowcountry has the buds a full two or three weeks early this year. I will take flowers instead of snow anytime.  They are not in full bloom yet and I am busily sprucing the yard to host the Lowcountry Plein Air Society for a paintout. Thinking of all my new friends and wishing they were here.  I will post pictures of the event later this month. This painting will be at Indigo Gallery  in Beaufort ,SC. for the Spring Art Walk, March the 17, 2012.   If you are in this area, this is a fantastic time to contact me and come out to the Garden Studio Gallery.

         The Path to the Water

It is always fun to paint with a group.On the way

to paint a beautiful water view with the

 Lowcountry Plein Air Society I followed this

 path that was still in morning shade. I could

 not wait for the sun to come so I went on

down to the dock to paint There I found a great

 still life. Yes there was a beautiful water view

  but my love of flowers and still lifes won.
It was a wonderful day to be out.
