Gorgeous Day Sketch

Posted on March 10, 2010 | 3 Comments

The grasp of Winter’s hold had slipped as Spring crushed its dominion, breaking through and reaching out…infecting us all.

 A dramatic sentence, huh? Well dramatic best describes a day like today. Life returned.

All of the snow has melted. The temperature soared to 58°F and the sun was unstoppable! Insects awoke from a torpor state and were active seeking adventures in a new year. I welcomed them back.

During a break from work, I had to do a quick 30 minute sketch of this beautiful event. It is the first gorgeous day of 2010. How energizing it was!

    We were away when the warm, sunny weather was last week. But, I’m looking forward to better days this weekend. I like your sketch–it expresses the feelings I have on a nice spring day.
