Just Add Water….

I’ve been playing around just a little bit with some watercolors. Here are some Iris .In Japan, the iris is used as a decoration for the “Feast of the Boy” in May.  The upright shape and strong growth are thought to symbolize the ideal of the samurai. And in about 30 min, I tried to make a simple plum blossom branch, with magic markers and crayons. The plum blossom is a symbol of longevity in China. Its delicate bloom emerges in the winter months and signifies life and hope while other plants and trees remain dormant. Have a great New Years Eve!!
