Painting A Garden

January... 
blah humbug....
~ Nothing excites me in January~
except maybe dreaming of how to paint my garden.

You mean "plant the garden?" 
No, it's "paint the garden".   
Dream if a garden with texture and color in my window paintings. 
The window vignettes should be full of color and interesting texture everyday, all year long.       
Lots of pines.   

Last year was a difficult year because of the drought.  But his year I am hopeful!  Naively hopeful once again.

1.  Find inspirational images
2.  Take photos as it is now
3.  Compare to summer photos- objectively
3.  Dare to dream of what could be
4.  Take one step ... 
You are one step closer

this is how I paint my garden.
