Spring is upon us and based on the flowers of leatherwood it is 26 days earlier than last year and 11 days earlier than 2010. I was back in Illinois again this past weekend and the vast majority of spring ephemeral plants were up and flowering. Here is a drawing of some of the action this time of year and a few snapshots of the drawing in progress. I still plan to add some more dark leaves around the bases of the plants. Colored pencil.

Wow--the veins/dips/textures of the leaves are an inspiration. And you do this with colored pencil!
