Here's a corner of my garden/terrace. This is where I grow my herbs, as well as basil, chives, thyme and there is a chilli pepper plant at the back. I also grow mint, oregano, sage and rosemary, it's nice to have something fresh from the garden to add flavour to your cooking?
Especially useful to throw on some pasta if you're in a hurry...all you need to add is some olive oil, a spot of garlic and a good sprinkle of parmesan cheese!

What a lovely (drawing of your) herb garden!
I love growing herbs too - fresh basil in a salad tastes wonderful.
This is so pretty! I love terra cotta pots in paintings...
Beautiful drawing! You did a lovely job of varying the greens!
This is one of my favorite paintings of yours. You've conveyed the sense of intimacy of that little spot in a very creative way. The shading and texture on the terra cotta pot is wonderful.
Cathy,
This is lovely, especially the different shades of greens. Looks like a very special spot.

Beautiful! I can almost smell all those wonderful scents.
Beautifully done ! Can we come for some pasta ?? :o)
Your composition in this little vignette is outstanding. My eye moves around the drawing in a really pleasing way. I also like the colors, with the bright blue on top, the orange-y terracotta on the bottom and the variety of greens in the middle. Fresh herbs...yummmm!
This is beautiful!
This is a lovely little corner (and beatifully painted) that I could easily spend time in
Like Sandra this is one of my favourite drawings of yours. Lovely colours and composition!
I don't know how you manage to put so much into such a small, humble, subject. This is just lovely. nancy
These greens are wonderful! I admire how you have managed to describe a whole place just with a small detail!
Lovely sketch and really nice blog - I'm now following! xx
Beautiful! I can smell the wonderful aromas of those herbs by just looking at this!
This is gorgeous. Love the detail and the colors of green. So soothing.
Thank you for all the lovely comments!
Beautiful drawing and very evocative, I can almost smell them from here :)
Terrific work Cathy =) You never fail to surprise with your talent!
This makes me sigh whistfully. Utterly charming!
