Today’s watercolor took me back to the early 1990s when my bedspread, curtains, and wall art in my bedroom were all splattered with splendid sunflowers – big ones, with a blue sky background that made me feel like I woke up in a Van Gogh painting every single morning. I can’t wait to have more time to paint; each of these paintings I’m sharing in May were created over Spring Break the first week of April, and even though I’m in a watercolor class now, I haven’t been able to attend in person because of…..well, the month of May…..as an educator. Days and nights both are slammed with commitment, and retirement keeps calling my name a little more loudly each time. Because I really have some petals, leaves, and stems I need to work on.
