From my July Garden

Number seven in the series – here is ‘From my July Garden’, in acrylic and oil pastel.

This one shows two beautiful Rosa gallica officinalis, also known as the Apothecary’s rose, in a little round turquoise blue pot by Rob Wheeler, a Suffolk potter. The pot was a thank you present bought for me from the Geedon Gallery by my friend, artist Martin Wenham, after a visit a couple of years ago. I chose it because I thought the colour contrasted brilliantly with the deep pink of the roses. Hope you enjoy seeing it.

From my July Garden

It’s been raining here most of the day – I’m really pleased as the garden was SO dry and the water butt was virtually empty – but I’m hoping it doesn’t rain all the weekend! Hope you have a good one, whatever you have planned! 🙂
