The sun was hot and bright; the shade, cooler and dark. The zinnias were very colorful and I could not resist painting them contrasted against the dark area behind them. Absent from my painting are the beautiful butterflies. Also missing are the acorns that kept dropping like mini bombs and near missing my head. The many perils of plein aire painting are forgotten once the painting is finished. And cooler days are ahead.

Oh so beautiful and what a gorgeous day!
I love the background trees with the light peeking through
I love this painting! Out of 5 Stars, I give this painting 6 Stars.The shadows, the color of the flowers- the simplistic impression in your brush stokes create a wonderful final result.
Thank you both so much.
Cecelia - this painting is one of your best! It's beautiful!
King's Gap garden looks beautiful Cecelia. What a lovely painting.
I know exactly where you were standing to paint this in the garden at Kings Gap, Cecelia. Your beautiful painting makes me feel as though I have been transported there, and I can feel the sun on my skin and hear the buzz of the insects. This is positively magnificent!
