January Garden (Plan to do a monthly series recording growth in my garden)

A delicate and beautiful painting.

Oh, thank you, Helen for such a lovely comment!

Delightful garden Barbara.

Thank you very much, Carole. It's a tiny garden but I've crammed a lot of plants in and am looking forward to depicting it when the flowers are in bloom.

Great idea, will look forward to seeing your garden each month. Lovely delicate sketch.

Love the inclusion of all the lively pen lines, fascinating work yet again!

What a novel idea Barbara, when you've completed the twelve months you should make a calendar for next year!

Hello Sandra, Louise and Fiona. Thank you so much for all your encouragement and lovely comments. The calendar sounds a brilliant idea, Fiona-thank you very much for suggesting it.

Excellent.

Gosh, thanks so much, Gudrun -I'm delighted you like the sketch as it's a new way of working for me.
