This painting is a recreation of one that I painted in the late 1980's and subsequently lost in our house fire on Dec23, 1999. I love lush gardens, rose arbors and paths. The painting had been one of my favorites and was the first painting I did on my own. It was heartbreaking to lose it. Recently, I came across a photograph which had a 1"x3/4" image of the painting in it. I digitally enlarged it and this painting is the result. Similar but different!

Here is the original version.
