Backyard Garden

Backyard Garden captures a quiet moment of natural beauty, rendered with Glenn Gordon’s delicate, impressionistic touch. Painted in 2004, this oil on canvas invites the viewer into a lush, sun-dappled garden where light filters through the trees and settles on a vibrant patch of flowering shrubs. Soft brushwork and layered greens convey the peaceful rhythms of a personal outdoor retreat—unassuming yet alive with texture and detail.

This work reflects Gordon’s ability to find the extraordinary within the everyday. With its gentle composition and immersive palette, Backyard Garden evokes both a specific place and a universal feeling of calm, making it a timeless tribute to the serenity of cultivated nature.
