A Rock'n Garden
The homes in my neighborhood have small yards and one of my neighbors has created a sanctuary in their narrow backyard. My theme is "Beautiful Sanctuaries" and this suits my theme perfectly. The chunky boulders in the background, the placement of the watering can that lights at night to create a waterfall effect, the hydrangeas and spots of color, and the violas in the walkway all combine to create magic for me to paint. I wasn't' sure what category to enter it into but I felt the potted moon flower and watering can created more of a still life than a true landscape.
