...end of winter

Winters in Canada are very long ... but spring is almost here,
green grass is growing everywhere and birds are singing!

I found some dried plants this weekend when we went for a walk.
The last pieces of winter...

  8. Beautiful, inspiring photos...makes me want to draw them. Are you familiar with Sylvia Long's gorgeous illustrations? These remind me of her work in A Seed is Sleepy. I happened to mention it on my blog this week; the illustrations are so lovely!
