April 14, 2012 Green Spring Gardens

The Capitol Hill Garden Club had a docent led tour of the gardens and house at Green Spring Garden.   What a hidden treasure this place is.  It is located on Braddock, near Little River Turnpike.  The Potomac Valley Watercolorists will be having their spring show there May 1 - June 25, 2012.  What a beautiful venue.

One of my Springmaid classmates, Nancy Bazin, just sent this picture of me with my my gauze painting.  That is our instructor, Kathleen Conover, behind me.

Party Night at Springmaid

Students get to display their art on Friday evening.  We had a wonderful buffet, cocktails and dancing, surrounded by beautiful art.  Bob was the most handsome artist there.

Bye bye hospital.  Thank you for the excellent care.  I love being able to breath easily again and have much of my energy back.
