More Enchantment

The Land of Enchantment--sometimes I think that means all the airborne parts!  The wind has been pretty persistent this year--maybe even more than usual?

This is a 24x18 oil stick and palette knife that I painted plein air at the Hondo Iris Farm last week.  I finally repainted and finished it yesterday.  The composition was hopelessly busy--a limitation of being onsite, as I am tempted to put in too much information.  I've painted out the buildings above the garden.  The foreground irises also made a switch from violet to yellow (!), as I couldn't get them to "pop" with the violets.  I'm much happier now.
