Spring happenings

It's hard to believe this same spot was frozen and covered in snow just a short time ago.

                                  Lovely spring blooms.

Emma

A reader of this blog recently asked about my cat Emma.

She is happy and is doing well.

For all who love cats, here is a part

of Emma's day.

 Pyrrharctia Isabella


While Searching for a reference image for a drawing, I found a lovely
old book on the bookshelf.

                  

Feeling the pull of early Fall days, I found the image I was looking for.



                             My work table and ever present cat, Emma.

                    After many days and weeks of sketching, drawing and painting,
                                            my little painting is complete.

           Wooly Bear aka Woollybear caterpillar.
           Forecaster of cold winters? or just a cuddly harbinger of Fall,
           I delight when I see you.
           Always calling me over to share your quiet world, we sit together and are content.
