Spring (sort of)

 
 
 

 
 
Spring has arrived and I say sort of because we are still having rain and storms while it is trying very hard to warm up.  I did get out for a walk today, it was so warm and felt good to wear a t shirt again.  Thought I would post this photo of new spring Ranunculus which have really cheered me up.
 
I still have illness hanging around, though things aren't as bad as they were in winter.  Just trying to drag myself out of the mental and physical hole I have been in this year.  I have felt artistically confused all year also which hasn't helped things.  Just trying to work out which road I want to go down next.  Which brings me to a drawing I made a while ago.
 
 





I was talking to someone last week about this drawing.  I thought I had done my research and had drawn a Crow like the ones I see everywhere but apparently they aren't Crows they are Ravens.  I'll have to do more research and find out more about it.  I really love them.  They perch on the power pole outside my yard and I sit and watch them.  I read that they are extremely intelligent and capable of tool making.  I watched some amazing videos about it, it was so fascinating. 
 
Bye for now :)
