  2. It's a photo (somewhat modified) of a rose in my backyard in some incredibly warm afternoon light. I'm so pleased that the roses are blooming. This variety has a wonderful classic rose scent.

  3. yes, paint it! the background looked real to me but the rose itself appeared filtered. and i suppose it has been.

    (i will be back later for your writing, jane. i am greatly in need of time these days.

    i love your new photo. you appear as i imagine.)

  4. Hmmm. Don't know if I have the skills to paint this.

    Erin. I figured I should change from my b/w winter phase, to the summer gardening pic. Thanks.

    And no worries about the reading.
    All in due time.

  5. This rose is a poem unto itself. Is it edible? If so, I'd devour it!
