The Tomato Patch

The Tomato Patch is an acrylic painting.  The viewer may walk through the gate to a garden.  I love this work because it invites the viewer as a guest to a backyard garden.  The work encourages people to enjoy simple things like gardens and sunny afternoons.  It measures 14” X 11.”  For details email marnismith922@gmail.com.
