Monarda In The Fall
My Monarda grew like gangbusters this summer and when I saw what was left at the end, I wanted to paint them with their few petals left. Kind of sad when any flower comes to the end. I wish I had a painted them when they were in full bloom but my summer was spent worrying about my eye.

These are such fun flowers. Lovely colors!
ReplyDeleteI can almost smell that spice scent...and oh dear, why didn't I know about your eye?!
ReplyDeleteKate, i had scar tissue on my retina removed on July 29 and they fixed a cataract while they were in there. My vision had been getting progressively worse in the last few years. After a month, the healing has been great and I am even getting some depth perception back. Eyes are so precious that I worried myself sick before surgery. Now I am a happy camper as the healing continues and my vision keeps improving.
ReplyDeleteI'm relieved, Teri! Yes, when I tore my retina and was seeing black snow and flashes, I was scared silly! 280 laser stitches later, I'm good...
ReplyDeleteYour sketch is beautifully done. I've never seen or heard of these plants before. Interesting.
