I was invited to paint in one of the seven

gardens on the Fort Worth Historic Society's

Hidden Gardens Tour of Fort Worth.

This year the gardens were in homes in the

Berkeley Place area off of Forest Park Blvd.

I enjoyed the afternoon painting several watercolor 

paintings and chatting with visitors as they toured

the garden at a home on Ward Parkway.

The garden where I painted was full of cactus in bloom,

succulents,Texas grasses, a rose of Sharon in full bloom,

rose bushes,  lots of interesting yard art and a

fire pit and seating area in the lower part of the garden.

The weather turned out beautiful after some rain in the

early part of the day.

show selected by the Texas Art Coalition at the
