Let me introduce you to artist, Kevin Chadwick.
After been an illustrator for over thirty years he has recently focused on his fine art painting.
These are some of the reasons why we love living in the country.

I am sooo happy I got to go to Historic Garden Week in Lynchburg Virginia!
Even though this house is not on the tour it's one of my favorites.
I grew up in this area and have always admired the architecture and gardens.

I've been wanting to tell you about this great artist who shares my design studio.
Her real name is Holly Bimba and I love the fact that she takes all of her paintings from nature,
gives them a little twist and turns them into a whimsical fairytale.
I love the sweet gentle love between these two doves.
And I just love this period! It gives me hope for spring and gardening.

I've been very busy with work and neglected my poor little blog. Sorry blog!
And I became obsessed with Pinterest- Oh dear! I really am back now. I promise!
A few weeks ago I took a day trip to Mount Vernon.
Mount Vernon, our first President George Washington's plantation,
is a beautiful and inspiring classical home and garden.

Welcome again to Glenda's garden! It has been a busy, hectic week. Isn't this front door stunning? I love it because not only is the architecture beautiful, the white looks so cool and refreshing under the large shade trees.
I love the contrast between the Canterbury Bells and the lush greenery in this shade garden.

Lets talk about garden envy! If ever there was a garden to envy, it would be my dear client and friend Glenda Cudaback's. Ascending up the hill to her beloved Everhart is a treat beyond your imagination. The first thing I noticed, is that maybe this is a garden that could be obtainable. The beauty of Everhart is that it has everything you would ever want on your estate, but Matthews House and Gardenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08874488626084098360noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7918122881428638810.post-29066675203902324452011-05-12T11:00:00.008-04:002011-05-13T14:06:43.903-04:00Exciting News
