Seed


A watercolor sketch for the Illustration Friday challenge this week - Seed...seeds and growing...what a perfect inspiration for spring...

I am not a gardener, but took a look at the seedlings that my husband and children had planted that were sitting on the window sill. I think this may be a baby basil plant...the basil and parsley seem to be doing well. I love how the seed casings hang on the edge of the leaf for a time.

I think that the movement and flow of watercolors illustrate the organics of movement and growing well... Happy Spring!

Homage


Homage to Man's Best Friend

This is an IF sketch done in collaboration with my daughter who just loves dogs (and colors).
We thought we'd paint a picture of our "Lucky Dog" last week...and now we are paying homage to him and all of the other pups out there who make our lives special!
