I have begun painting more intimate landscapes and interiors – here my garden and open studio door, celebrating four years of making the garden happen, and four summers of painting in the studio. I grew most of the prairie flowers from seed, and have a greenhouse full of tomatoes. Now the echinaceas and prairie mallows self-seed in a riotous pinky-purple chaos, buzzing with bees and a few butterflies flitting about. Also I have a thing about watering cans. You can see the influence of Paul Klee and Bonnard in this, even perhaps Matisse.
