Sage news


Yesterday I went into the garden to ponder my current paintings and what sort of colour I was going for with the new cliff canvas. I sipped my water, threw my yo-yo around (great stress relief!) and then spotted it. My perfect green. A soft green, warm green, hint of violet, a bit grey.

Purple sage. Isn't it lovely?
(Credit where it's due, it's my housemate who manages to get things to grow in the garden. I seem only capable of stunted veg and cacti.)

...and hat's wrong with cacti? You're absolutely right though - purple sage leaves are gorgeous.

Re the Skylark blog posts - no, that's what I call planning!
