| "Beyond the Knot Garden", acrylic on canvas 12" x 12", by Nancy Roberts, © 2016 |
A couple of weeks ago I spent a lovely day painting at Filoli, the beautiful historic estate in Woodside, California. Beyond the highly-manicured formal gardens I came upon the Knot Garden, a fragrant jumble of heather, sage and herbs planted in a Celtic knot design. With the late-afternoon sun glowing through the woods, this spot had a peaceful, almost mystical feeling.
