The joy of human interaction with nature is the idea behind the project I've been working on for some time. The visual narrative, sketched out almost a year ago then brewed on the back burner, is now pushing itself into bloom. I'm working full steam ahead on developed drawings and some color sketches, like this one.
"Pages 6 & 7" is about 4 x 10 inches.

Going to school can be a big job, so sometimes you need big tools! The whimsy of this image attracted me. Believe it or not, this pencil is a real object in our house. It was made by a 9th grade student several years ago in my art class, then graciously gifted to me. (Thank you, Dara!) The amount of fun this object brings is a gift that just keeps on giving.
"Big Pencil" is 5 x 5 inches. I met this Dahlia at Morris Arboretum this morning. They really know how to arrange plants! The color of this background is inspired by the actual plant that was placed behind it.
"Dahlia" is 5x5 inches. I met this Zinnia along the Pennypack Trail yesterday morning. The sun was shining and I was getting some long awaited exercise while the kids were at their first day of school. I love zinnias...especially this time of year when they are one of the most colorful flowers left blossoming.
