I love looking at those really cool sketchbooks that some artists do. The ones with the ink drawings and bright splashes of watercolor.

In The Garden is a combination of painting and collage. Sunny and warm, I made it during the summer of 2014 when gardens were awash with flowers of all colors. As with so many of my artworks, this one started one way, then took a left turn in the middle. It began as an abstract […]
