We visited the historic Comstock House last weekend, and all I could manage to sketch was the upstairs windows! And these lovely flowers in the front of the house.  Their gardens are everywhere, and as Candice explained, she is approaching each garden area as a “room” of the house.  Their koi pond is a wonder!

Many thanks to Candice and Jeff Elliott who took us on a grand tour of their amazing home and gardens.  What fun folks, and what a great work they are doing in their restoration efforts.

My friend, Richard Sheppard, who does amazing watercolor work and plein air painting around the world, made this wonderful entry on his blog.
