Christmas Conservatory

introduction

I garden, both vegetable and ornamental, and I love visiting gardens of all kinds. Spending time at Longwood Gardens at any time in the year is wonderful, but their conservatories all decked out with lights and gazillions of poinsettias at Christmastime are just magical. 

This piece was my attempt to capture that glory and my first piece at the Gingerbread Festival.
