I spontaneously started creating this drawing tonight and when I began I was honestly thinking of my "to-do" list (not very inspiring I know). Every little "burst" I was creating was reminding me of things that need my attention and I've been feeling a bit pulled in different directions and unsure as to where to start. But as I kept working on the piece it shifted and changed into something else. I quickly saw the "bursts" as flowers and as a whole, they then create a garden. My "to-do" list transformed into a great metaphor. As in a garden, each one needs care and attention to thrive and for me to reap the benefits. I feel my list is a bit less daunting now somehow...and my image ended up very fitting for the first day of Spring!

Nice Garden! I needed to see some flowers. My Garden is under a whole bunch of snow and more snow. For the first day of Spring we got some more fresh snow.
