We spent this afternoon at a traditional summer garden party. Lots of fresh, organic food and plenty of margaritas to enjoy. It was relatively warm for the Humboldt County coast – holding steady in the 70’s with the sun shining. Our friends, the Collingwoods have a magnificent property that I have been expoloring and recently did this piece from their garden. I plan on continuing the series along with others I have in the works…..so many paintings, so little time. A lovely day in paradise on the north coast of California.
