Foxglove Lane Cottage Garden

12X16
Oil on Archival Panel



Foxglove Lane Cottage Garden is the newest painting in Flower Mound Studio, and is based on the gardens of Coronado Island, California. We toured this garden during my class there near San Diego a few weeks ago, and even though the air was chilly, the flowers were still in bloom on the rose arbor above. We were fortunate to bump into Juan Flores, the architect of Coronado flower gardens, and multiple blue ribbon award winner for the Coronado Flower Show. Juan loves to share his tips for growing the best flowers year round. Juan told us that he sometimes cannot sleep at night, he is so excited about his gardens, planning what he will plant and what colors he will grow in the coming season. Thanks so much Juan, for your generosity and your vision, you are truly an artist!

The Old Mill Study, Barbara Haviland

  #mill,#water,#building,#11x14,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com This painting was part of a study.  We had the photo and I painted it then watched the demo. I always do that.  I like to change my painting up a bit. It is painted on a hardboard panel that has canvas adhered to it.  I have used this method for years. I don't care for the spring of a stretched canvas.  Thanks for viewing my art ~~Barbara Available  GALLERY INFO Barbara Haviland Fine Art 1579 County Road 1010 Woodville, Texas 75979 409-332-0141 Website

Central Fire Station Lake Charles, La Barbara Haviland

  CENTRAL FIRE STATION LAKE CHARLES, LA #CentralFireStation,#HIstoric,#Building,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com Central Fire Station  no longer exists in  Lake Charles, La.  I had some old photos that I used to paint this painting.   24"x40"  and it is signed and framed, but you must come pick it up. I was told that the station burned down and they built another.
 I haven’t posted here in a long time, partly because my artistic endeavors have taken a turn toward quilting instead of painting.   But this quilt started as a painting which I had printed on fabric and then turned it into a quilt.  So maybe I can slip it into the blog!  If you are interested in seeing more, let me know!
