"APRIL SHOWERS BRING MAY FLOWERS!" WHAT DO TORRENTIAL RAINS AND HAIL IN MAY BRING????? Another lovely spring day in Vancouver!!




A good day for painting and so I did this watercolour and haiku. I still need lots of practice but I
I really enjoyed doing this. It's not a very good scan but I tried it several times and this was the best I could get.

  1. Love your haiku page, simple and refreshing. Just like spring time. Great work!

    And what torrential rain you had. Same here, though ours is lesser and for winter reason - simply wet and cold! Not very happy though.

  3. That weather looks dreadful! We have had a lovely April here, unusually so.... And for once Cornwall is not as wet as it should be, the thunder storms the rest of the country is getting are mostly hitting land above us *grin* Hope we can share some of this weather soon!

    That crocus picture and poem are lovely! I always enjoy seeing your work.

  4. It looks like torrential rain! It's been rainy here, but not quite like that.

  5. Love that Crocus! I wanted to let you know about the markers for the CalligraFUN class. I like the Zig Brushables http://www.markersupply.com/zigbrma.html
    and I have all colors. They are all wonderful! Here are some favorites: Pure Pink, Apricot, Kiwi, Hyacinth, Splash, Antique Burgundy, Pure Red, Spring Green, Cool Cucumber. Some of the others are great too but these are my favs. Thanks!!

  6. Hi, I forgot to mentions about the writers. The writers in the same colors as the Brushables are probably the best. I don't use the writers as much as I use the black Micron markers in a .05 and .01 size. But the writers are great to have because they have a larger point and a small point. Great for regular writing and making dot with the larger end.
    Thanks! Color Drop will open back up soon. :))
