An abundant celebration of Summer! My terrace full of nasturtiums, their yellow flowers heralding the change in seasons, their shape like the trumpets of Angels! We are being visited by butterflies and bees enjoying the flowers' sweet nectar. They bring joy, energy and creativity. This drawing is the first in a series of direct observational pieces based solely on the nasturtiums. The marks and feeling are immediate, strong and vital like the flower.
