My vegetable garden is always a happy place because it's chock full
of self-seeded flowers. Poppies, calendula and borage in this sketch.
But also nigella (love-in-a-mist), evening primrose, johnny jump ups and
rose mallow in other parts of the garden. It's a riot of happy colors.
I meticulously weed, dead head, water and tend the volunteers, almost
daily, while much of the rest of the yard goes to ruin. Hmmm. . . .
Also,
I did a rare direct watercolor sketch! Always a challenge for me to get
a good sketch without using ink. I'm happy with the results in this
one.
