Looking at your sketches of crocus made my heart happy. Ours and our neighbor’s are blooming and they are SO BEAUTIFUL! Thanks.

The lettering of “wonderstruck” was with blue ink in a waterbrush. 💙

Oh wow those blues and yellows are so joyful Helen! Would you mind sharing the roll-up that you use for your plein air sketching? It looks so handy ☺️

The crocuses! They are pure joy both on and off your page but what a beautiful capture! You shall have to share your garden mimosa tips as I have tried but failed with three bushes now and none of them seem to be able to survive up here in Cumbria!

This post made me feel like springtime is in the air! Beautiful purple crocuses. You're inspiring me to get out and draw some before they vanish!
