I have painted the abandoned lavender fields before see here. This painting is slightly larger and contains more of the poppies that use any opportunity to takeover.

"A taste of summer" sunflower and lavender oil painting by Marion Hedger

 "A taste of summer" sunflower and lavender palette knife painting

This is a rework of one of my Garden 101 series that I started last year and is fresh off the easel today. At the time, I put it in my discard pile, as, although I liked the concept, the painting did not come out as expected.

I am not having a lot of success with my iris paintings at the moment, so as a change, I got this painting out and reworked it using a palette knife and fresher looking paint.
I really like it now. Quite loose and fresh looking to my eyes. Let me know what you think.
