Rose Garden, Mt Vernon Gardens in Omaha

I have been painting. Just not as often as I would like. My mom and I have both had a bunch of dr appts lately, cutting my painting time short the past few weeks. I've been getting in the studio consistently, though, even for just a short time.
This piece was done in August of 08 when I still lived in the Omaha area. It was done en plein air, at Mt Vernon Gardens. I love that place. I ran out of time that day and didn't get around to finishing it until last week. I had fun with glazing medium again, rubbing it in with my fingers and brightening the painting up with brighter, deeper colors.

This is a small plein air oil painting that I did last summer, but thought i should post it so i would have something to post, since I am still in Henderson, NV waiting for the birth of my grandaughter, and haven't painted at all in the past 2 weeks. It looked as if she was going to be born a few weeks early, so I rushed out here to babysit my two little ones when my daughter Jaimi went to the hospital, but so far, the little stinker is staying put. Jaimi will be induced tomorrow nite, and the baby will most likely come sometime in the early hours on her actual due date, May 31. I'm praying she'll come today sometime.
