103116 12x16 Halloween in the Garden

I painted this in the garden, late in the afternoon.  Temps started in the mid to high 60s and got chilly as the sun went down.  I finished this painting in the dark!  The big, gold marigolds were so inspiring.  Zinnias reaching for the sun further back and smaller, orange and scarlet marigolds in the front.  The red, glass sculpture I made from recycled vases was so tall I had to prop it next to a post.
