Gardenworld

Gardenworld, Braeside, Springvale Road, Victoria. What a place for garden lovers and sketchers! A HUGE garden centre with a grotto and waterfall, a big desert/cactus display like a movie set and a bonsai area. Plus regular plants, garden paraphernalia, a gift shop specializing in fossils and a separate lotus/waterworld area. Not to mention a bustling cafe with an unexpectedly large selection of good food. Today was busy with visitors including what looked like a tour group of geriatrics.

Here's the dim, cool and damp mossy area where the sound of a waterfall made for a relaxing sketching spot. Drops of water kept falling on my page and helped my wet-on-wet painting attempt. Next to the bridge was a popular photo taking spot. The lady was acting up trying to look coy! 


A great day out with a few sketch friends.
