#177 - Autumn Brilliance
This landscape
captures the brillant colors of Fall in all its glory. I especially love the contrast of the orange,
yellow and red leaves with the river and waterfall. The birch trees are made with real birch
bark. The foreground is decorated with goldenrod and purple loosetrife which
are in bloom this time of year.
Botanicals:
Poplar, burning bush, smoke bush, asiatic lily, poplar, and miscellaneous Fall leaves;
birch bark, banana skin, cotton, fern, garlic skin, purple loosestrife,
goldenrod, and beehive.

#171 - Butterfly Bouquet
Although I haven't posted anything recently, I have been extremely busy. This colorful
piece features a beautiful peony which is adorned with lavender roses,
larkspur, coral bell, salvia and fern.
These fragrant flowers are so fresh that their nectar is being feasted
by a dozen butterflies. This piece was sold at the Experiment Station Show in November 2013.
