New garden beds! Squee!

6 new raised beds in a formerly bare bed, all ready for more plants. Used flat stones from around the yard so we can have safe footing

Gardening is so good.

From an old photo of mine. Popped up and struck me as a fun sketch/watercolor. And it was.

​

I really love reliving my memories this way.

My growing garden 😍

I've got 6 midnight snack cherry tomatoes and 3 early girls coming on. I also have a sweet pepper too. All of these have an abundance of flowers too, especially my Oregon Spring tomatoes. The celery & cauliflower are incredibly happy too. Zucchini & cukes look really healthy as well.

​

Found the arch at Craft Warehouse in Gresham for $20, gonna try to train our resident grapevine to it.

​

So much in the garden to be excited about!

From hotel room @ SW 6th & Oak, Portland Oregon (3/29/25)

I'm going through old photos and finding interesting things to paint. Sort of like really seeing the world through my own eyes.
