"Irises" ©

In a few weeks the Arlington Gardens is hosting a paint out and art sale to raise funds for the foundation that supports the garden.  I'll be one of the many artists painting in the garden.  Last weekend I went exploring so I would know what to expect on the paint out.  These lovely Irises were raising their heads above the spring grasses growing along a path.  Nearby couples were picnicking under striped umbrellas on a flowered table cloth reminding me of Italy.  A gem of a spot that I am looking forward to painting after I get home from Texas.
