Pretty in Pink…

May 21, 2008 · 3 Comments

Zelma Fudge
…is the case of “Zelma Fudge”.

When I was looking for a house to buy I looked and looked and looked. It was hard to find something that really appealed to my sense of space, aesthetics and “budget”.
Finally I found a house that met my needs but it was in a neighborhood that was not at all fashionable.
What convinced me to purchase this house was the home situated across the street, it had an amazing and beautifully landscaped garden.
I thought this is definitely a “good sign“,
for who ever lives there really loves plants and flowers and I want to know them. And so I closed the deal and finally became a homeowner!

So it was Zelma Fudge!
Pinks from Zelma Fudge's garden
Here she is smiling framed by her plants and with spade in hand.
Also I have showcased a small selection of pretty pinks from her garden!

More tomorrow…

Art Statement

When I take the time to look and to really see and to apply my "foolish" imagination, there are worlds within worlds within worlds to be discovered.
