Description of Garden Retreat
I created Garden Retreat en plein air last summer during the annual Artists In the Garden event, hosted by Union Street Gallery in Chicago Heights, Illinois. The garden I painted, “Jardin Delacroix” in Flossmoor, is quite lovely. I sought to portray it as a peaceful and inviting scene, with a small pond as the focal point. As I continued to work on the painting, I was influenced by the interplay of light and shade in the Impressionist’s garden art. I was recently juried into the Union Street Gallery Guild and was invited to participate in the Twelfth Month exhibit, where this painting was displayed. This art is available exclusively at my Artfinder website
