Painting 128: Another time I worked on what I would call a landscape painting. This is #books and #plants set in Portland OR aka #rosecity. I'd come a long way since my first landscape one back at painting 30. I still really love how the two blues play off of each other here. #tenyearsoftwothangs

Petra in Jordan is called the β€œRose City” because the rock-cut temples and tombs shine in shades of pink and red.
It was the ancient capital of the Nabataeans, carved directly into the stone more than 2,000 years ago.
Today, it is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.

Come with me on this #ADHD journey down a rabbit hole.

I was looking for a *new* open/green space to go explore. I saw the Rose City Cemetery and always thought it strange that it had a gated "Japanese Cemetery", a cemetery within a cemetery. So I searched for "Japanese Cemetery Rose City" and aha, there was a Wiki for it.

After reading it, my interest was further piqued. I clicked on the first reference note.

The roses are going to fade in the coming hot temps so I tried to capture their beautiful spring colors in the early morning light today
