"The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers."~ Thich Nhat Hanh
This weeks theme for illustration Friday is "bloom". I don't know if I'll have this done by Friday so I thought I'd share the sketch I'm working on just in case. This will be created with felt & embellishments. I need to send a postcard to places that have me on file and this will be the image I use. "Felt Like Spring".
And it sure does feel like spring here today in Texas. Beauteeful!
This will be so adorable!!!

I am so excited about postcards. I read your article about them in the Market book months ago, and have been working furiously to add to my portfolio, so that I have a nice selection to choose from. I'm taking advantage of all this beautiful weather in Houston and doing as much sketching outside as possible. I'm planning on a new sketch....a wonderful neighbor down the road has his ENTIRE FRONT YARD full of bluebonnets. I love driving by. You can see all kinds of people taking pictures all day long.

This looks like it's going to be so cute when it's finished! I can't wait to see it.
Oh, I went to the craft store yesterday and when I passed a mountain of felt I thought of you! :)
