Even with Violet and Iris gone, my garden would be a woman’s place…
for Daisy, Lily…
Rose…
and Bell–not forgetting busy Lizzie…
if it wasn’t for…
sweet William!

Thank you so much, Ina! I am surrounded now…my garden is so lovely…and wish I had more time to paint them in the moment! Thank goodness for the digital camera…so at least ‘the moment’ can be preserved!

Perhaps we could persuade Sweet William to change its name to Luscious Wilma… Very pretty drawings, Diane! Summer is for flowers. Yesterday I heard four little ones outside my window discussing the pros and cons of picking one of the roses in my garden. 🙂

Luscious Wilma…I think secretly he wouldn’t mind at all, Barbara! Yes, I just can’t get enough of summer flowers…and have to keep myself away from garden centers. What a precious conversation those little ones were having! Thanks for sharing and your kind lovely comment. Happy summer solstice!
