Sketchbook- The May Garden

{Sketchbook, 2010}

I spent a little time drawing my world this evening. There are plenty of lovely spring blossoms to choose from between my shade and sun gardens. My favorite spring flower is definitely the Lily of the Valley. It has the most intoxicating fragrance! Aside from drawing plants, I also noticed some kids flying a kite in the park across from my house and some Turkey Vultures circling around the woods.

Kite strings! (especially fun on a blustery day!)

Illustration Friday 2- Horizon

I've posted this on my blog before as well, but I thought I should share it again...I think it fits great with Illustration Friday's theme this week too! This little girl is flying her kite as the crispy air and fall horizon surround her!
