100 year old springs flowing from Alaska

A 100 year old natural spring in the town I live in, said to originate in Alaska. The gardener loves flowers like I do. quote by James Russell Loweel A weed is no more than a flower in disguise, which is seen through at once, if love gives a man eyes. copyright of image by Michael Forbus

a lovely creation and setting. fine interaction of color, light--a wonderful display and as usual a timeless quote.

Artist Reply: Joe, thanks so much for your great support. This is one of 9 commissions I did in large format of the village I live in and those are the 100 year old springs that made the town famous. I am about to do the 9 fall versions and they hang them through the next season and then rotate the others through. My genuine thanks and gratitude for all your support, encouragement and intelligent repartee on these works that we do. That is the best. Thanks so much, Joe and have yourself a glorious weekend. Michael
