Posies: Cynthia’s Sedum


You n ever know how you change someone…
I have a friend who is an artist and also has an amazing garden.
Cynthia shares her whimsical garden with us daily,
and also lets me sketch from her flowers.

This morning it was her sedum flowers on a cobweb hen & chick.

I’ve been stuck, tired and overwhelmed from wanting to work on some projects,
and finally said screw it and forced myself to pick a posie and let loose…
15 minutes to finish before the alarm went off and the work day began.

I don’t know why I forget this — that flowers always lift me to sketch!
Thank you thank you thank you Cynthia!

PS I will sketch sedum again and find the right pinky coral for it…
and a more electric green… but the moment was then
and I made do with the Rosie Coral I had on hand.
