This is another painting (4 x 6) that I did in one of the greenhouses at the Planting Fields Arboretum the other day. I felt like I was surrounded by color.

I HAVE MOVED!
About Me
- Joan
- I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage. Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.

Beautiful work Joan, reminds me of a Janet Walsh painting. Great job.
Wow, that looks like a great place to paint - and it's indoors!!!! Your little landscape is really pretty.
Oh does this remind me of languid summer days, the smell of flowers, warm sunshine and beautiful days! What a grand job you've done!!!
Joan, I love this. I wouldn't have the self-control to leave all your placement of colors alone!! (maybe that is why I end up with so many messes!!) I have really been thinking about doing some flower painting recently in very languid watery washes... and your flower paintings are inspiring me!
What a gorgeous riot of flowers and colors, Joan! The steps make me think that a wonderful casa or hacienda is hidden by the profusion of foliage...of course, a tropical environment. Beautiful work!
Joan - Thank you so much for the compliment!
Mickey - Thanks. It is a nice spot to sit and paint. They even have places to sit.
Lin - Thanks for that poetic comment!
Maggie - Thanks so much. I was tempted to go back in and add more detail in some areas. I'm glad I stopped myself.
Sherry - Thanks. The steps only led to the doorway to the other sections of the greenhouse. lol I think a hacienda would be more exciting.
