We just spent a much needed break in the sunshine state.
A visit to the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens is always enchanting and
I had to share a few pictures with you. No doubt they will inspire some new work.
Anyhoo, I am back in the studio looking out on six more inches of snow!
Hoping spring will come sooner than later. Savoring the memories of the last few days.

Have a great week all!

The Begonia Maculata is absolutely gorgeous! So glad you had a lovely break, and
congrats on the feature!
Susan: That's for sure!
Annamaria: Thank you! It was much needed! the Begonia leaves are stunning and I was instantly smitten.
Oooh, what an inspiration! Just like you:)
Lina: you are too kind :)
I'll never forget my first visit to Selby Gardens - escaping from where I then lived in the Chicago area to find some sunshine. Now I live blocks from the gardens, and am so glad you got to visit and recharge your winter-worn batteries with so much natural visual beauty, and artistic inspiration - can't wait to see how it translates into your always-amazing work!
Kandice: you are so lucky! We visit Selby whenever we are in Sarasota! Such a beautiful place to live!
