More Blossoms!
It is cherry blossom time....I saw many cherry trees in Atlanta...In front of my daughter's home for one place.
My granddaughter gave me this art work which she brought home from school. I love it! It is so "Zen" and was done by blowing wet paint around with a straw, a project which I remember doing in grade school. I loved it then, and I love it now! I think I even see a bee approching those blossoms!
Yesterday, as I drove to work here, I saw that our mall is surrounded by blossoming cherry trees! How did I miss those last year? Must have had something else on my mind!

I remember doing the paint thing with Boy Scouts--I was the den mother! What a fun thing. Spring blossoms are the best.
Love your granddaughter's mixed media art work! It is simply beautiful.
Ooooh...the picture is so pretty! She did a great job!Kelli
OMG! I thought that was something you'd bought in an antique store from Japan. At first I thought the blossoms were made of ribbon and embroidered onto silk. Imagine having something that gorgeous brought home from school for you! I'd frame it right away. What beauty!
I'm sooo envious of all your pretty blossoms! All I have are buds and the hope of blossoms in a few weeks. The color of nature is just breathtaking.
Cherry blossom with pink tissue, a flood of memories came to minch when i saw this!
Sweet Day to you!!
oh I can remember doing a work of art just like your grand-daughters... thanks for the memory! I think I will do one for myself this week!
I love cherry blossoms - my cherry trees are getting ready for the autumn ball ) x0x0
Years ago I had a cherry tree outside my bedroom window...they are gorgeous in full bloom!!!Love the zen effect of your granddaughters art....so sweet for her to give it to you.
I love the piece of work your grand daughter did it really is wonderful, and you are right it is so zen and it totally sums up cherry blossom.
Greetings from central Arkansas, where the sun beckons me outside today, to dig in the garden. I'll be thinking of you doing the same.
This is so pretty ~ a budding artist!! Hope you have a lovely week, I do remember seeing the cherry blossoms in Washington D.C. they are just so lovely!
What a clever little duck, that is beautiful, I may have to get some straws. It's definitely worthy of framing!
XOXO
Cherry blossoms are the greatest!!!
