Every spring there is a tree down in our yard that gets these white blossoms. I am sure there is a name for it but I do not know it. (If you do know more than me, feel free to cue me in on the name. Thanks.). From far away it looks like a normal beautiful tree but up close, it is quite scraggly looking. None the less, it reminds me that spring is here so I ask a wiling spirit in my house to cooperate for just 5 minutes and let me play to create a spring portrait.
Most humans in my house are not willing spirits so I told them they could buy something little from Amazon if they cooperate. Guess what? There were 4 willing spirits!! Three were definitely bribed and the fourth just wanted to wear the new spring dress. Win. Win.
The first one of Lilly is my favorite. I just love the movement of the hair on her face. Not every time I “play” do I get a stunning picture of everyone who participated; mostly because I am experimenting and with experimenting, there is a lot of failures (ok, “learning”) happening. But I had fun, they had fun, I get this beautiful spring portrait, and they get new fancy chap stick from Amazon!
