Spring Showers


Crash Bang Wallop - it's May!

Spring has finally arrived as a green haze wraps itself over the shrubbery.

This mixed media piece was inspired by April showers but finished on a sunny May evening with a crisp and cold Chablis running through my veins to welcome in the season.

Now that I've finished with my romp through the A to Z of blog posts, it's nice to catch up with a few artistic challenges. This one's for the Artists' Playroom as we explore spring showers and flowers.

Dripping onto the page is a mixture of inks, acrylics, oil pastels, coloured pencil, acrylic pen and rain!

  6. There are those flowers that I am growing to love more and more. Just seeing them is soothing to me. :) I am going to start checking out some of these challenges that you enter. They seem right up my ally and might be a great way to improve my studio work. Happy Weekend!
