spring

Spring
My Illustration Friday attempt for "spring".

This poor little illo was done in such a big fat rush, it really didn't get the time and devotion it deserved. Sorry little Spring illo. Maybe I'll redo you when we get to Spring.

I'm back at work this week and am wondering where I found the time to do all these extra after-work activities before. How did I squeeze them all in? I seem to have lost my momentum.

It's Autumn here and right now it's all about remaking the bed with thicker blankets and pulling my scarves out from where they've been stashed away for so long. All you lucky Northern Hemisphere people are doing the very opposite. Lucky Spring people!

I would never guess that this illo got less than your full attention. I think it's great, the floaty magnolia tree and butterflies, dreamy girl and flowers, nice.

Great job! I agree with Kaya, if this is "not spending a lot of time" it's hard to believe!

I agree with Kaya... wouldn't have known this didn't get full attention. Hope you love re-discovering your scarves.

I feel your pain! I wore gloves to work this morning... brrrr... Nevertheless, you have captured a wonderful springy warmth in your illo. It's gorgeous!

This looks wonderful just as it is! It's fresh and spontaneous - the way I like to feel when the weather gets warmer.
