"Lavender in the garden"







I think my favorite painting so far, of all the Provence paintings.  This was next door to our lovely home in Bonnieux.   Lavender is used for decorative purposes, as well as to harvest.  The smell is wonderful and the beauty is hard to describe, even in paint.  One can only make the attempt.
18x24, oil on linen.  All the paintings will be shown at Craving Art in Beaufort in October.
