Drawing Challenge: Grass

Because little things are practice for big things, I decided to roll around in the grass at the house next door, (which is about to be torn down), and count the clouds! To me, little things and baby steps are key. They are a form of reassurance.

    Where are the dandelions of yesteryear? There’s a poem in there somewhere.

    I love how you show the chaotic messy way grass tumbles its way towards the light – suits my mood these days 🙂 X

    Wish I’d been there to view the grassy view with you. It’s such a treat to lie on the spring grass. Delicate isn’t often a word used for grass but that’s the word that springs to mine from you painting. Lovely, Veronica. Thanks for hosting again. xo C

    Rolling in the grass, dear Veronica, is fine!
    Your drawing is precious as a etching, great.
    Thank you for hosting, again, Dear. Grass has brought me back to memory lane… and cheered me up (’cause my sister has left Hamburg on Friday I felt sorrow of leave-taking).

    xo Ariane.
