Wine & Flowers

Meerkerk Gardens entrance on a rainy day.

Whidbey Island Winery


Laburnum Arbor at Bayview Farm & Garden


One of the things not to miss on our Island is the Laburnum Arbor at Bayview Farm and Garden.  It blooms in early June letting you know that Summer is not far off. The other is Meerkerk Rhododendren Garden in Greenbank.  This is a small painting down while sitting in the car in early May.  The entrance building is brand new, built by local artisans donating their time and although it makes you think of England, quite beautiful!

 A few weeks later we were meeting at Whidbey Island Winery on a cold and windy day.  Everyone else ended up in town at Music for the Eyes, but I stayed in a protected sunny place where I could paint the view of the vines.  Go to my link to Whidbey Island Sketchers to see the lovely Langley paintings that were done by the rest of the group.
