Photo Art Friday ~ February 17

Wow the last week flew by.  I was away for quite a bit of it...not far but away.  I visited both Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, PA and the New York Botanical Garden in an attempt to find some inspiration in color and escape the doldrums of this very uneventful winter.  I took this picture today in New York and worked with Bonnie's new texture Splash of Gold to create this effect.  It's my contribution to this week's Photo Art Friday.

I visited Longwood Gardens many years ago, what a gorgeous place.

You've edited this into a piece that could easily be mistaken for a painting! Lovely. Thank you for sharing your artwork with Photo Art Friday.
