Hard work in the Garden.

To cut down on expenses, Jules and I are taking care of our garden maintenance.
It is not an easy garden nor it is a small one.
While in Colorado, we are the guardians of 36 acres of pure wilderness, here in New Zealand we care for gardens that are man planted with fruit trees, grass and many seasonal plants.
In the past, we had a gardener to mowed the hilly lawns but now we do it ourselves.
It is a hard physical work but it is so rewarding.

I went into the studio yesterday after two hours of lawn mowing and to my surprise I noticed how fluent the painting was.
There are days when I am mentally tired. on these days I do not paint well.
But yesterday I was physically tired and as a result, my mind was quite and cooperative.
