Spring Greens

I was up at 5 am! I guess I went to bed way too early. The house was quiet and I had all that quiet to myself. I spent 2 hrs stitching in the dandelions and some extra grasses & stalks. Another finish!

Spring Greens, 2012

Spring Greens (full of dandelions) was based on a photo I took two summers ago - the summer when every field was flooded. The browns in the background are stubble & dirt fields. The algae-covered water in the foreground is a flooded ditch by the road. This piece measures about 7x9". I personally love this one. There's just something about the colors that I love so much. : )
