Forsythia FUN!

Forsythia ... Fun to say and fun to paint!

These YELLOW blossums are tiny and made only of four little petals .... great to study and design with.
Put them together in a group and the landscape has a burst of yellow that certainly heralds the fact that spring is here!

I feel that way about myself ... nothing to shout about all by myslef but with the support of art friends and family .... I beam with warmth and color.

Have a great day everyone .... and remember, I am here for you and trust that you are there for me if I need an "art" ear to listen or a keen eye to view my work.
