Spring is coming

Even though I hate it when they take over my yard, I've always thought there is something so charming about dandelions. It was fun to mix all the yellows for this one, I definitely see more dandelion painting in my future!

This was a good lesson on supports. I used a cheap canvas, and even though I primed it with black gesso it still felt so different and bumpy to paint on compared to the nice smooth gessoboard I'm used to.  I may give higher quality canvases a try in the future but I've learned that uber cheap canvases are no bargain!
