Hello Everyone!
I hope you all enjoyed a wonderful weekend and are ready for a whole new week. Our forecast is predicting rain all week for us so I guess we will make up for a dry August.
Anyway, when I took a stroll through the garden on the weekend I picked some late blooming roses to enjoy indoors. They looked so pretty I wanted to share them with you.
I love this little vintage teapot for one.
The pink rose is Heritage a David Austen and the white one is a mystery to me- if any one knows which one it is please let me know.

I love how pretty these roses look in the pretty vintage teapot and I would love to be able to paint these, like the wonderful artists Helene Glehen at http://artglehen.blogspot.com/ or Helene Flont at http://laboutique-atelier-flont.blogspot.com/ both of these ladies are beautiful artists from France. I am sure you will enjoy a visit with them to see the beauty they create.
Well, that is the rest of my camera fun for today. I did take some garden pics too for later on this week.
Thank you for visiting me,
Carolyn
Hello Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteFirst, I wanted to thank you very much for quoting and adding a link to my studio-garden on your beautiful post. I am honored and sincerely grateful to you :o)
Second, of course I was delighted to watch these beautiful roses of yours. That makes me start my day happily.
Third, about the mystery white rose: It could be a David Austin'rose : Winchester Cathedral, or Glamis Castle or Fair Bianca.
It would be interesting to know what is the color of the buds.
If you have the time you can check David Austin'roses website here :

Thank you very much again dear Carolyn.

Such a lovely post Carolyn and I was very happy to find the links to the other 2 artists.
ReplyDeleteI love painting and have a passion for roses so it is always thrilling to read about other artists who are on a similar path.
Have a wonderful day!

In awe of your abundant supply of roses and the little teapot is just adorable.
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by my "house" and leaving your sweet comment...I too wish we lived closer together, to have access in person to your amazing garden and your knowledge first hand would be such a delightful blessing.
Hope you have a wonderful Monday

Carolyn your flowers are just so amazing each week. Your David Austin roses are magnificent! Mine are only two years old and I'm hoping they will improve with age. They were stronger this year so hopefully even better next year. Have a wonderful day!

Hello Carolyn :) You have such exquisite roses! And they are perfectly displayed in that charming little teapot, which, by the way, I adore too :) Love the soft colors on it. Thank you for sharing these beauties with us, and I hope you have a wonderful week...and don't get too wet :) We are not suppose to get any rain until Thursday, which won't be too good for my son's Football game that night :(
ReplyDeleteWarmest hugs, Brenda
ahhhh, your photos are so sweet and romantic!
ReplyDeleteahhh, you photos are so sweet and romantic!
ReplyDeleteDear Carolyn,
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful roses. I like the Heritage rose! It has such a delicate pink colour. Don't know what the name can be of the white rose. I have a rose like that in my garden as well. It's called Schneewitchen, but I am not sure if it the same rose as you have!
Wish you a happy new week!
lieve groet, Madelief
Your work is so beautiful that I can almost smell the sweet fragrances of each rose. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteYour roses brought a smile to my day. They look perfect in the small vase. The white rose really is lovely; it almost looks like a peony. Thank you for sharing the bounty from your garden. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteI just love your roses. And they sure look sweet in that pot.
ReplyDeleteI have also "visited" the ladies you gave us the addresses too, and they both make a beautiful work.
Hopefully neither you, or we, will get that much rain they have told us. We sure don't need it.
Have a lovely day.
Love Elzie
Absolutely the most beautiful roses that I sew!! Thanks!
