OUR ENGLAND IS A GARDEN, 6X8, Oil, Canvas Board



Our England is a garden,
and such gardens are not made
by singing "Oh, how beautiful",
and sitting in the shade.


Rudyard Kipling
The Glory of the Garden






A beautiful "English garden" in Hyde Park, London.




It was like walking into a fairy tale.




Surely elves live there.

Ah, splendid! If this is not spring, what is? One must give it to the English, they do not try to control gardens, but allow nature a little madness!
