Stack of art books surrounded by tubes of paint, various brushes, a pencil and eraser, drawing paper, a bowl of water, and seed packets.
As spring 2013 approached we gathered our seed packets and catalogues eagerly, but winter tenaciously held on longer than expected in Minnesota. I turned to my art supplies for relief and this painting is the outcome: a blend of books on painters and art styles, old seed packets, and an assortment of painting necessities. Solace came as I created this image of sunny, promising items.
