About Margaret Stanton's prints
Artist's Note: This painting was done on location at the Hawaiian Tropical Botanical Gardens. This painting was completed in one sitting. Some white of the canvas is still evident, and you can literally count the strokes in the painting. When I looked at it later in the studio, I saw that there was a mood in it. I didn't want to destroy that. I continued to look at it hanging on one of the walls that I keep in the studio for that purpose. As time went on I saw that only a tiny reenforcement on the dark was all it needed, and signed it.
