Late Day Sunlight On Coneflowers - SOLD!

"Adopt the pace of nature; her secret is patience."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
There are certain times of day when it's fun to see what gets illuminated in the garden. As the light moves around the house from sunup until dusk, it's like a showcase of various points in the garden. Around late afternoon the stems of these coneflowers become lit up, and seeing the colors that come out of this is really fascinating to me! Our childhood brain might say "flowers have green stems" but if you really look at how light hits certain ones, you really have a lot of color in them!

Great texture and color...such a happy piece! Love it Roxanne.
Thanks ladies! we've got a lot of flowers packed in a small space! I'm wondering if next summer I'll need to transplant some of these as they get bigger/& spread!
