"Marigolds" are fun easy to grow flowers that are a excellent choice for beginning gardeners of all ages. Butterflies, bees and ladybugs like them too. Other pests don't like them so they are a wonderful companion plant to have in your vegetable garden.
This original mixed media artwork was drawn with a water soluble pen with my non dominant hand on a collaged substrate of papers including some from a vintage textbook on beekeeping. I added a wash of gesso before doing my drawing, then brought the piece to life with watercolors.
The artwork is 4" x 6" on paper and will be shipped to you in an archival sleeve so that you can frame it to your liking.
