Coming Up Rosy

First signs of Spring spotted by my kids near a stream in Traverse City

Spring is in the air where I live in northern Michigan. The temperatures are warmer, the snow is melting, birds are happily singing and everyone seems to have a “spring” in their step and a smile on their face on the recent warm, sunny days.

This past weekend I finished my first flower painting in my floral series “Blooming” with IndieGrow Flower Farm. After doing so, I took a walk with my kids in our neighborhood. As we approached a tiny stream they excitedly pointed out a small patch of flowers that had popped up and started to bloom. I understood why they were so excited – after a long winter it was the first sign of new life that we had seen. Spring was starting to show her lovely face, even if it was just a glimpse, it felt really good.

Flowers have a way of reminding me of the sweetness of life. I hope you enjoy my new painting titled Rosy and that you find yourself looking for the “Rosy” in your day.
