This painting was done at the Wallsingham Botanical Gardens. It is a beautiful location with a canal and bridge similar to Monet's gardens in France. I was on the bridge and noticed this bush under the bridge that was sparkling with the reflections of the sun and seemed to be very content with its location. I thought I would "go out of the box" with my colors and get out of my comfort zone. It was gutsy and fun. It took a while to decide when the painting was complete but when I came to that point I was pleased. It will be hard to let go of this painting as I grew as an artist when I painted this.

I love the "out of the box" color of this piece. The color of the bush is what immediately caught my eye.
