When my parents first built their new home when I was just a young girl, they planted yellow marigolds in the back yard along the driveway.  I love their bright yellow blooms.  Finally, just this year, I was able to have some marigolds in my garden and keep them alive. 

This painting is the 5th in my From the Garden  series for my final thesis project.  Just 10 more to go!!

When I am not painting, you can find me in my garden!
