\u201cSigns of Spring\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The signs of spring are starting to show themselves here in the northeast.\u00a0 I noticed buds of new leaves on the trees and the purple crocuses have just bloomed in our side yard. A sure sign that spring is approaching soon. It feels good to see these signs.\u00a0 It means warmer weather is coming, if we only just wait a little longer.\u00a0 Oh, we all find “waiting” can be sometimes hard, but the best things come in time. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

I’ve had some projects I’ve been working on.\u00a0 As with any project,\u00a0 It’s good to put the proper time into them. <\/span><\/p>\n

I worked on another “Horse Fun Pages” on horse markings.\u00a0 It was fun gathering the info, planning the layout and doing the illustrations. I’ll be releasing it for sale soon. So look for the coming annoucement. <\/span><\/p>\n

I’ve also been working steady on my scratch board images for my 2010 exhibit.\u00a0 For a sneak peek you can go to my blog<\/a> and see “Works in Progress<\/a>“.\u00a0 I’ve been posting my images that I’ve done so far. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Enjoy the days ahead. <\/span><\/p>\n

“Mourning Dove<\/a>“<\/span><\/p>\n

“Mourning Dove” is a pen and ink drawing of a mourning dove.\u00a0 We have mourning doves in our area and it’s neat to hear their cooing in the morning.\u00a0 This was done from a picture I took at the beginning of spring. The buds of new leaves were on the trees. <\/span><\/p>\n
