The Garden Guards series was created as part of an internship at the Japanese University in Takaoka. On the school campus I had a small garden, which I went to manage daily and which (rich) harvest not only made me happy, but inspired me to create many paintings. I often created these watercolors outside, right in the middle of greenery. D. B.
