A postcard of my visit on Monday to the garden festival at the Château de Chaumont sur Loire.
There are about twenty small gardens designed by ontemporary designers each year. This year's theme is "coloured gardens". There was everything from beautiful ones to ones I considered rubbish. I thoroughly enjoyed taking photos anyway.
Thanks I loved all the insects buzzing round or getting it together in the gardens. They must think it's paradise to have so many flowers to choose from Most of them wouldn't sit still long enough for me to take photos.

Thanks Yes I will be submitting a few separately but right now I'm really busy with exhibitions and potters markets and hardly have the time to log on! When I have some free time I'll get round to it. I put this together to keep myself awake while waiting for my kiln to get to the right temperature late last night.

Gorgeous. Odd as it is, I like the co-ordinated laundry ones. Probably wouldn't in real life, but they make for a great photo.

Actually I really liked the laundry garden. The coordination was very well done. My companion didn't like it though. Each to his own. My favourite was the contrasting Black / yellow / green one (apart from the painted bright yellow and black bamboo poles they'd stuck everywhere).

DeviantART has partnered with FAIR to help promote equality through The Love Unites Shepard Fairey Equality Project. We're asking deviants to align themselves with this cause and have their work judged by Shepard Fairey himself!
For those who have many watchers, and for those who dont have many, it is hard to know how one retains that interest as well as receive more. This article explores the basics of watchers and how we react to certain situations. Although it does not affect some deviants, and the tips are generally related to common sense, we hope the article is a worthwhile read and that the majority learn something from reading this.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
