More Spring!

I love all the flowers that are blossoming around town! Here are some more spring pictures that I took this morning: 

               

Then I grabbed J.J. to pose for me...

It's That Time of the Year Again!

The time when you think winter's going to last forever....

...but in reality, spring is only right around the corner!

Spring - the symbol of renewal and life. 

The time when you see something dead come to life in a beautiful array of colors. 

I can't explain the surge of peace and joy I get when I drive down the street and see little white blooms covering the trees around town. 

I'm sure there will still be rainy days, cloudy weather, and chilly afternoons, but the flowers are here. 

They have arrived.

More Sketches

After posting the sketch of Mr. Thornton, my love for sketching sprouted again, and I had another go at it. 

I have to say that I like the results! I'm in the middle of my fourth project now, one that I think my older brother would love.... :) I'll show it when it's all done.

In progress...

Judy Garland

Jimmy Stewart 

And my favorite so far...

The Phantom of the Opera
