Crepe Myrtle Lane at the Dallas Arboretum by Texas Flower Artist Nancy Medina

Crepe Myrtle Lane is based on another scene from the Dallas Arboretum. This path is located just to the left when you enter the grounds, close to the lake. I was lucky to be here in the late afternoon, when the sun was streaking sideways across the sky and casting light on the fuschia and white flowers. I'm no architect or designer, but it is always fun to change the shape of the paths in the paintings, and veer away into other directions than what was really there. What a beautiful place to meander on a fall day!
