Zinnia in the Noon Sun of the Old Cottage Garden Original Oil Painting by M. Ashley

 

This is the last Hurrah for this beautiful Pink Zinnia in My Garden. The days here have been rainy and cloudy for weeks! The sun broke out for just a few hours one day and this was so bright and pretty for just that time and now it is going to seed. Zinnias are really a bright spot in the old Cottage garden. The light is so bad that my camera did not pick up the subtle shade of dark greens in the background but they are there!
