A Bit of Summer - Cosmos and Dahlias, 6 x 6 inches

A Bit of Summer - Cosmos and Dahlias

SOLD 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm)

Today is the first day of the Labor Day weekend, and in my mind this weekend marks the end of summer and the beginning of the fall season. I love this time of year, as I know once the academic year begins, more order enters my life and I enter a new phase in creative productivity after a lull.

This time of year is also my favorite in the garden, because I love late summer flowers and the abundance of color and texture found in my flowerbeds, which are often unruly and chaotic by this time of the year.

Also, I want to thank you all for understanding my break from blogging this month. It has been a challenging month for me, where I have been thinking a lot about life and art, what makes it so special and how lucky I feel to be able to have such a creative career. Taking this time to rest and think about the future has been wonderful and very motivating.  Next month, I have a lot of plans and goals and am looking forward to being around more.  So stay tuned... :)

Have a great weekend, and here are some recent snippets from my garden.
