Alstroemeria

These blossoms were part of a bouquet from by sketching buddies at my birthday celebration at Vicky's. What a fun day that was.

Spring violets that come up every year from starts from my mother's garden. They have a wonderful scent.

Magnolia blossom

A magnolia blossom from our tree in the front yard.  These bloom in late winter and are such a welcome sight. 

Camellia

This is a sketch that I did of a camellia that I picked from a bush in the front yard. There are so many petals on a camellia that I got lost after awhile and felt that I should number them. I like the vase. It's one that my sister got for me in Cannon Beach.
