Spring landscapes

This week we all have spring fever. The students, Mrs. Mary and myself are all looking forward to spring break week after next. So to celebrate this wonderful weather (and crazy pollen counts) we are using oil and soft pastels to create beautiful spring inspired landscapes. So keep the allergy medicine nearby and enjoy this wonderful weather while it last!
