A Pot of Oregano and Some Planning
I wanted to do a quick little sketch of this bright pot before I planted it. I know it's better off in the garden, but it sure was cute in its bright red container.This past weekend we did a lot of yard work and the weather was great. It's in the 40s today. We built some raised garden beds for my cutting garden and a small herb garden. I did a ton of weeding, "staked out" my birdhouses (shown in the previous post), planted my perennial herbs, bought a truck load of garden soil . . .
I'm getting things crossed off my summer to-do list.This morning I went over to the Terrace Inn and we planned the second annual "Afternoon Tea" with watercolor journaling. The place is beautiful, the food is delicious (and pretty!), the service is wonderful, and we all take just a few art supplies and paint up a storm. I will be posting the details very soon.
Now I think I'll go paint my ORANGE petunias. I know, a purist would say petunias shouldn't be orange, but I say Wow! - fun! - orange petunias! Just don't be altering my food!
