The Artist in the Garden: The Garden in the Artist
Sharon Lovejoy
March 28, 2010
Just in Time for Spring
Join best selling and award winning author and illustrator Sharon Lovejoy as she takes us on a personal walk through gardens around the world.
Lovejoy will show you how to use colors, textures, patterns, water elements, and whimsy to transform even the smallest space into a living work of art, a collage of flora and fauna.
Learn how a garden can be used as a canvas and how art can be inspiration in a garden design.
“Just as Monet’s garden influenced his art, his art influenced his garden.”
