Old Airport Garden #1

I enjoyed painting this on location and meeting some of the hard working people that make these beautiful gardens. The place is bursting with life, so look for the dog and his person, the cat, and the mongoose. I have mixed feelings about all the animals here - much as I love each of them, there are practical reasons not to feed cats in our environment - they eat a remarkable number of birds even when they are fed, and they carry diseases to some of our native animals.

I enjoyed learning about the Golden Arrow Plumeria. What an interesting variety!
