'Inspired by hydrangeas'.......I was...........
................ so I painted this. This months Country living had a beautiful article on Hydrangeas. The jewel like colours got me very excited indeed. I might take a little trip to our local garden centre tomorrow to see the colours they have. Very busy painting for Baxters gallery in Devon still. This with two more went today, more to follow. My two favourite magazines these days are Coast and Country Living. the pictures inspire me no end. We are househunting at the moment, looking and dreaming of that Seaview! Back to painting Dartmouth!

I oohed and ahhed over that article too. I love how you used it for inspiration. We have a lovely pinky lilac coloured hydrangea which we inherited with the garden. The flowers look lovely in a jug on the windowsill. I think it's my favourite flower now too!
Good luck with your househunting. Are you off to live by the sea?
So very beautiful! I have a hydrangea that I'm very proud of, I got it cheap at the food market and manged to save it. It's blooming again :) I should (I will) send you an issue of the Swedish magazine Lantliv (Country life), I know you would love it. It's my favourite mag.
glad you've been putting the book to good use. lovely new painting. looks like things are going well with the new gallery. feel a bit of a con artist buying country living, can't wait to live in the country!
good luck house hunting - seaview and countryside imagine that!
