Garden sketches in December 2010
I stuck my nose out in the cold today…just outside the atelier and sketched the Jack Frost plant, whitered from the frost and the dry iris sculptures and a tree and shrub, struggling to hold onto some last colour.

..whithering Jack Frost(Brunnera macrophylla)..

..Plum tree..

..Dry Siberian iris pods..
…à la prochaine…

These look just like our December plants here…just barely hanging on. Love the way you sketched them…imperfections in their droopy leaves and all with just subtle touches of color. Great job!

I love your lines! And I also love that, like me, you find beauty in wilting and dying plants…
