In Pursuit of Spring

I am anxious for Spring! Although I love the seasons, and would never leave my home state of Michigan, by March we get "teased" every now and then, with aromas of Spring in the air. Then out of the blue, BAM...a snowstorm. And yet I wouldn't have it any other way. These flowers make me think of Spring. It's the first time I've been in my studio since the challenge. I needed a break. I also did a collage with Citra-solv papers and will post it tomorrow. It was pretty fun.

    1. Thanks, Val! The background is a deep plum-ish color, but it was very hard to capture that with my camera. Actually this was the start of a painting I never connected with. So I negative painted (carved) around here and there with that dark color until I liked the shapes. Then I just enhanced them!
