I love Spring! It is my favorite time of year. The green is brighter than any other green and the air is so fresh. As I was out doing some yard work, I pulled up a piece of wood that had tiny mushrooms sprouting from clumps of dirt on the side. I was all set up on my front porch to draw and as soon as I made the first line on my paper, it started raining! I tried to move back into the doorway but the wind still blew the droplets onto my page. So in a compromise with nature, I carried the large piece of wood into my kitchen, propped it up over my sink and opened the kitchen window so I could still smell the spring rain! The lighting was not quite as nice and there was a rather constant stream of small ants appearing on the counter top. But I enjoyed it all the same!
