Blue and white, my favorite look.

I thought the silver lid on the jar

added a wonderful touch.

I like the way the shadows have lots

of color and depth.

My patch of purple coneflowers

has grown and spread to a very nice

bunch this year.

They each have their own

personality, just like a family.

I love the look of light passing through

colored glass. Shadows deepen and

the colored light intensifies.

A wonderful compliment to

the beautiful yellow lily.

Blossoms of Nikko Hydrangeas

overflow this richly colored cobalt glass vase

while the light colors the shadow

through the glass creating a trio of blues.

I relocated this hydrangea last fall

and was very pleased with the

difference it has made in the abundance

of gorgeous white blossoms this summer.

Hopefully I captured it's strength and beauty.

I turned and saw this wonder scene

Hope it brings fond memories for you too.

Simple and elegant in the glass vase,

these oak leaf hydrangeas glow

with soft lights and shadows.

The intense light that shines through

the water and vase onto the

cloth behind always intrigues me.

Fun in the sun!

Every morning we are treated

to many kinds of birds,

usually in pairs taking drinks

and baths at the same time.

Here are Goldfinch friends having

a pool party at the garden bath.

The bath bowl is an old ironstone bowl

and it makes the perfect bird bath.

Enjoy the sparkling water, flagstone path,

and perennial flowers.

This vintage Mason jar was my grandmothers.

The ornate vintage sugar bowl has

a sweet history of its own.

Lilacs symbolize emotions of love.

My grandma lived next door as I grew up.

I am thankful for her love and

many sweet grandma memories.

More garden blooms!

The Day Lily is derived from the Greek

and literally means

"beautiful for a day"

The orange lily by itself carries the

meaning of happiness.

Paired with the double happiness vase...

Triple Happiness!

The Iris carries many meanings, such as

faith, hope, wisdom,

courage and admiration.

This courageous survivor of many years

gave me a lovely bloom to paint

after many years of hiding.

It was part of a clump that was here

when we moved into home

over 30 years ago.

I guess it wasn't finished blooming after all!

This old tarnished silver sugar bowl

is lovely just the way it is

and it complements the

hand painted demitasse porcelain cup.

For a bit of contrast the cobalt

jar plays hide and seek

with the sugar bowl.

I'm always inspired by pretty pansies

with their cheerful faces in

overflowing pots or in my garden.

Whether they are in full bloom

or as buds about to burst as

they hide amongst the leaves.

They beg to inspire!

Pansies have inspired Arts and Literature

for many years.

Even William Shakespeare's play

A Midsummer Night's Dream

referred to the juice of a pansy

blossom in Act II, Scene I.

Legend says that all pansies were white and

it was not until they were pierced by cupid's arrow

that they gained the purple and yellow colors.

With all his messy straw hanging from

his coat, this wooly sheep gives

us an endearing curious look.

How could anyone not like that face?
