I guess you are all more used to it where you are but I do hope you can stay warm. I'll get some more sunny spring and summery picks on the go now ;o)Lisa Le Quelenechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15939073566444931704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1893909553937403783.post-75291322954725191182012-01-20T03:33:51.002+00:002012-01-20T03:33:51.002+00:00Lovely sunny daffs, what a harbinger of spring. A...Lovely sunny daffs, what a harbinger of spring. And to keep them all in one book is a good idea. It must be fun to look back over time and see the different interpretations of them.<br /><br />Of course here daffodils are a long way off yet and with a snowstorm due tomorrow, I'll content myself to dream of spring looking at yours.Jeanette Jobsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08935974758134419990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1893909553937403783.post-37891423817037816672012-01-18T18:12:32.165+00:002012-01-18T18:12:32.165+00:00Hi Bruce, I've just visited your blog, it'...Hi Bruce, I've just visited your blog, it's nice to see you back. I hope you are feeling better now. <br /><br />It's interesting to look back over the daff book and see how I've improved in drawing and use of media now that it's been going for a few years. The problem remains but I feel much closer to a solution now. One day... and probably a few sketchbooks later ;o)<br /><br />Isn't nature amazing in the way it gives us little signs of hope like daffs and clemantines during it's darkest, coldest days? Or the new growth that comes fast after a fire. Best wishes.<br /><br /><br />Hi Judy, thank you. They are desparately difficult to paint aren't they? His Nibbs call them my nemesis lol. It's my annual challenge. I'm finding that there is something to be said for the repetition. Can't wait to see your daffs, I hope that you will post them.Lisa Le Quelenechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15939073566444931704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1893909553937403783.post-84830660770011490312012-01-18T13:23:14.006+00:002012-01-18T13:23:14.006+00:00They are beautiful!

Great idea!!!<br /><br />What a better way to face the icy fingers of Winter... than to play amongst..."a host of golden daffodils."<br /><br />I love those "Daffies" as well! As gawky as they look.. they never fail to warm my heart!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing!<br /><br />Good Painting!<br />Warmest regards,<br />BruceBruce Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111784187521969252noreply@blogger.com
