Sandy's Garden Path















This is an 18 x 24 commissioned painting that I did yesterday onsite in my friend Sandy's garden. I am really pleased with how it turned out and I hope she is pleased is well. She has a beautiful garden - so gorgeous that is was difficult to pick just one scene and stick with it.
I worked on a cad red ground and this is all done with a brush - a departure from my usual knife work - but it felt right for this subject.
My friend and fellow artist Kim Rempel kept me company and did a painting of me working on this one. Check it out here.

  8. Hi Tammy,

    This is beautiful! I really enjoy seeing this side of you... painting with a brush. Kim's painting of you at work in the garden is wonderful, too. I wish there wasn't a province between us... I would have crashed your painting party and joined in! :o)
