I loved working on this painting. I am such a nature lover and this is where I dream to be, in a field surrounded by beauty with the warmth of the sun on my skin.

Garden Retreat


"Garden Retreat" 15,5" x 11"- watercolor on paper -NFS

This is an area in my backyard that I look out at from the kitchen window. Gazing upon such a beautiful setting may be the reason why I don't mind washing dishes.

Note: the colors in the painting are much more saturated and brilliant than the photo shows.
