The Meaning of Spring

an 8 by 10 WIP in watercolor on paper ©Maria's Watercolor Art

Started this small painting for The Daily Paintworks Challenge, The Meaning of Spring.  Nothing yells Spring more than the new pile of kittens hiding behind the hay bales in the loft of the barn.  Now the veterinarian in me says spay that cat, we need no more homeless kitties, but the artist in me says get a photo, and paint those sweet faces.  Still a work in progress here.

  2. Absolutely get some pictures, then spray the mama. How fun to find such a sweet surprise. It's been years and years since I was around a litter of little ones like this. How fun and sweet.
    Happy Spring girl,

    1. Thank you Debbie, I am just loving this Spring thing, buds on the trees, daffodils opening, ducks wandering everywhere, flip flops! Hope it sticks around, thanks for following, and I look forward to seeing your beautiful artwork on your blog as well :)
