Botanic Garden Sunday


It was a hot and humid day...

I painted this flower garden at the Albuquerque Bio Park Botanic Garden yesterday. The onset of the monsoon has made the humidity climb (We're still waiting for the first big rain event at our place) and I was dripping wet standing in the still air and sunshine. My original intent was to do this subject as a practice piece, and not intended as a finished work. It appears to stand on its own as a finished piece.
