...a wonderfully selfish thing.
I've been lost in the twists and turns of bluebells and it's been a lovely place to be!

Bluebells
There are a dizzying amount of bluebells out in my garden.
How can you not love those little fairy hats?

The kale made it through the winter...
...we all did.
Happy Spring!

Persistence...
I inherited a good dose of persistence from my mother,
so I just couldn't leave the hellebore drawing unfinished (see previous post).
And perhaps the hellebore has some persistence of its own - flowering with all its delicate beauty in the cold and wind of early Spring.

Okay, I can't draw a hellebore
Seriously! I've been trying all week.
I've done several sketches and started two large drawings and it's just not working!
Creating can be so fickle and... well... frustrating.
The beauty of the hellebore is its dreamy soft colours and its delicate centres -
neither of which I can capture!
Please go outside and take a look at one, because I can't do it justice with my hand!

I desperately needed some inspiration today...
...and look what I found at the local garden shop!
The lovely, romantic hellebore... sigh.
Of course!
I'll start drawing tomorrow.

I was smitten by a tree...
...it had joyous cherries springing off its bare branches and I haven't seen anything like it.
Is there such a thing as a winter cherry tree?
If you know what this little beauty is called, please let me know!
For now, this drawing stays untitled.

A treasured garden rose...
...can be found, if you're looking.
May you have a wonderful Valentine's Day!

I've been searching for...
...a little bit of wild.
