My pansies were so abundant this year they overflowed the

pot they were in. Didn't get much sunshine this summer in the 

pacific northwest although pansies seem to do better in cooler weather. 

Our other annuals didn't do to well, a bit straggly.

These wonderful lobelias were out on my deck just glowing in the sun.

Lobelias are one of my favorite flowers to paint. 

They are such dainty flowers by themselves but when they 

mass together the colors are so vibrant.

When setting this still life up I pictured it being evening and
the day was done. The candle blown out, the glasses taken off,
the book closed and the teacup was empty.
