Inspiration for this painting was a large garden of Holly Hocks and other plants that was backed by a slanted roof
that came within two feet of the ground.
The garden filled the side yard which ran from the roof to the side walk. I took the photo from my car.
I'm particular to Holly Hocks since as a child my grandfather made dolls using wooden clothes pins and the flowers.
