April’s plein air event was at Mead Botanical Garden. It was a warm spring day with a nice breeze. The roses were in full bloom. Leslie and Thouraya set up in the shade with a view of Alice’s Pond and enjoyed the birdsong. Despite central Florida’s dry conditions, the pond was full of water and life.
