Description
Moving to Maine meant starting over without any flowers in our yard after spending thirty-years developing an English garden in Colorado. I took several walks around the neighborhood and more trips to a local greenhouse. After the first winter, everything died except the parsley and cilantro. I tried for three years before some flowers made it through the winter. That third year, I planted two hydrangea bushes and one azalea bush. All three shrubs are alive, and I think they will survive. I have found the climate and soil here very challenging.
I took a reference photo of my azalea bush last spring and had a struggle painting them as well as growing them. It is another month or more before we get spring flowers, but I am hopeful.
I painted these flowers on Arches 140 lbs. Cold-Pressed watercolor paper with Dr. Ph. Martin Hydrus Watercolors, Daniel Smith Watercolors.
