"Nona's Greenhouse" - a pastel plein air painting

I finished it!  It was quite fun to do.  My husband thought it looked like a Hobbit garden.  Actually, the garden really is a great garden for fairies, hobbits and sprites.  Maybe that's why she called it "The Enchanted Garden".

Wow---you have been busy!! Thats how you grow, and improve---and it shows so much. This little green house is nice work---both the colors and the drawing! I still think gardens and flowers very difficult.
