Adventures in Mixed Media

In the midst of another ice storm that hit us on Saturday, 

I decided to create a little Spring for myself.  

Through the use of mixed media, 

I created a scene on a canvas....

a garden...

Suddenly, flowers began to bloom. 

As those blossoms peeked above the picket fence,

 a young lady with curly brown hair 

and a song in her heart appeared in the yard. 

 

I heard her whistling a little tune.

I think she was going to pick a few flowers...

perhaps for a garden party.

She was certainly dressed in her party attire.

By the time I finished her,

my winter doldrums had passed,

and I found myself whistling a happy little tune.
