Zinnia Metamorphosis

Zinnia Pattern, Rubeckia inspiration. Flowers from this week for the seasonal flower alliance, first of the Cafe au lait dahlia, I see what all the fuss is about! Amazing colour so subtle perhaps next week painting?

Seaweed Pattern

 Seaweed Pattern, weekly flowers busy summer days.....

Flowers for the Seasonal Alliance the garden is blooming, next year (as all gardeners say) soaker hoses and a timer, it has been a marathon task to try to keep up. It has been a summer of swimming and visitors (more to come) and work. Never enough hours in the day!

We had jellyfish in our bay the other day and friends of our daughters staying who swam into them, no stings. Saw them later on the beach expired but inspiration for Illustration Friday skull, thought of skeleton of a jellyfish?

 

From above buckets of bouquets ready for the market.
