Gardens In the Square by Roberta Rettew Iula

                                                                                              

                   
                  
              Good Morning. On this cold February day I post warm colors of summer to come.
              Pictured is a small section of my work, Field of Sunflowers. I recently framed this
              and it is ready for show time at Brath & Hughes Fine Arts Gallery. I made a visit to
              the gallery a few weeks ago, and it was exciting and helpful to view the wall where 
              my art will be on view.
              Gardens In the Square show will take place in May, 2013.

               Orris House Inn is a drawing of my Urban Oasis Series.  Busy street, miles of houses close together,
               small frontage properties. Your attention is drawn to this section due to beautiful example of
               Second Empire Victorian architecture- which is presented not just singularly but with double placement
               charm..... the existing established classic landscape unifies this site and drawing. Large old deciduous
               and conifer mixed with broad leaf evergreen, shrubs and perennials makes this "back in time, charm feeling"
               more believable. Add the architectural element of wrought iron fence and gate and the setting gets rather
               perfect. I will be making further studies of these properties.   SOLD
