I wanted to take a break and post a few pictures I’ve taken in our garden. We’ve seen an abundance of bees buzzing around from one flower to another. More so than last year. A good sign!

Has anyone noticed? We have a lot of pinky flowers in our gardens. So lovely to see.

During the summer, we were concerned that we did not see too many swallow tail butterflies. They finally appeared in our garden.

Prompt: Create a quick sketch of one of the flowers you see here in my post. For the first sketch, create a quick (10 minute) pencil sketch. For the second sketch, use your pen & ink to sketch the same flower. Remember to add shadows under a few petals and leave some highlights on the flower. This will make your flower appear less flat-looking on your paper.
