Worden's Farm
Yes! Orchids grow on trees in Florida! This tree's near a pond on Worden's Farm near Punta Gorda.
Hong Kong Orchid tree and my painting spot.
Orchids, close-up.
Unusual Floridian weather, foggy and cloudy, but at least the conditions stayed the same all morning while about thirty VAC plein air artists painted away.
Afterwards, we had a mini-show. Christa and Audrey donated their works to Worden's Farm in appreciation of letting our group paint on the grounds. Looking forward to painting here again on a sunny day!
Our mini-show
Workers harvested sunflowers while we painted.
Today's painting is # 5 of Leslie Saeta's 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge.
Will be auctioning my paintings on Ebay after they have a chance to dry.
