| "Angels Rest" 9x12 oil on panel Sold |
Angel Crest Gardens was another new discovery for me this year at Paint the Peninsula. I saw a splash of color as I passed by on highway 112 headed north and had to turn around to check it out. Turns out this quaint farm had been closed for a season while the owners cared for a ailing parent
who passed in the spring.
The gate was open so I walked in immediately seeing that this was a place I wanted to paint! The owner, Linda, graciously allowed me the run of the place and even picked a beautiful bouquet of flowers for my host family. Her dogs Lily and Cara kept me company while I painted.
I picked a spot that had a driveway bordered by glorious dahlias and fall flowers to paint. The home in the background was where Lindas mom lived.
I named the painting Angeles Rest. It seemed that peaceful and joyful a spot to me.
