William Shakespeare's garden at New Place in Henley Street was typically Elizabethan, consisting of a flower garden, a kitchen garden and an orchard. Amongst the produce grown here would be Leeks, Apples, Cherries, Figs, Apricots, Dewberries, Cabbage, Carrots, Gooseberries, Peaches, Pears, Turnips and Gourds, as well as Roses, Lilies, Oxlips, Columbine, Daffodils, Pansies, Sweet-briar, Hoddling Violets, Marigolds, Honey-Suckle and not forgetting potato and a host of herbs. These fruits, vegetables and flowers can be found in this coloring book together with various trees such as Oak, Ash and Chestnut. The 'colorist' is invited to use their imagination in the coloring of the pictures in the preferred medium of pencil, crayon, watercolor or other, thus creating a simple line drawing into a colorful masterpiece. It is also possible for the 'colorist' to add extra interest to the picture by the addition of extra drawing where it might be considered plausible.
Paul A. Downer lives in Hampshire. His only training in the field of ART was an 'O' LEVEL followed by the completion of a foundation course at Portsmouth College of Art. Besides his love of gardening he has always had an avid interest in William Shakespeare, his works and life. Now in retirement, much of his time is given to the caring of others, whilst at the same time creating Shakespearean images of plant life found in his literature, sonnets and poems.
