Spring Daffodils

"Finally, finally SPRING!

The beginning sketches of Daffodils
 The daffodils are in full bloom in my garden here in Pennsylvania. The bright yellow color is so welcoming.  I love to pick a bouquet of daffies and bring them into the house. It's a sign that the garden season has really started! I took the vase into my studio and enjoyed drawing them and adding the color - yellows, greens and creams.

They are  blooming at the same time as the grape hyacinths, primroses, forget-me-knots, and early tulips. The combination of the classic blue and yellow is stunning in the garden, especially when planted "en masse". Many of these different daffodil varieties were gifts from other gardeners. It is a nice reminder of them. It is always fun to share plants."
