"Gonske's Garden"

[chessmonster]

Painted on location in a garden near Taos, New Mexico.

”Gonske's Garden” 18”x20” (#1005) oil on linen canvas (private art collection, Los Angeles) by Lee Gordon Seebach

My artist-friend Walt Gonske of Taos built a beautiful garden and adobe wall around his home. This was painted from inside the entrance gate.

I can almost feel the coolness of the garden contrasted by the heat on the other side of the wall.

@theblindsquirl Thank you for commenting. It was a sunny, warm day in summer so that's nice to hear.

Thanks for posting.

It's funny how some oil on a piece of canvas can stir up memories and sensations.
