Thoreau's advice is well taken as always. Summer, 2009 has been rainy and quite chilly actually. In an attempt to make the best of it, I am posting a small painting of hollyhocks at left that usually bloom in the height of summer. This is a 2x3, "Hollyhocks at the Lake ", and if you would like the original it is $39.00 matted and framed- 5x7. Prints are always available.
On the right is one I did years ago. These red hollyhocks were right outside my door and I painted them more than once. Those were hazy, lazy days of summer. The kids (grown now) usually would run around the corner of the house and take one or two hollyhocks with them so by the end of the season if we had two or three left we were lucky.
Enjoy the day - don't let it get away!
