Good for you! What a positive beginning to spring.
I love the looseness of this sketch. It showsyour talent for drawing so well.

Likewise! Morning glory?
Something you do well, that I notice because I don’t, is that you track the natural, organic flow of the stem and pedals in a way that shows you understand how a plant grows and bends to light etc. I always start too rigidly, as if it conforms to geometric laws that ignore the dynamic growth process… very cool
Thanks Leila, Karen and Thom. I am happy to report that there are fewer Morning Glories to paint than last week. Once I have ridded the landscape of this scourge, I’ll probably plant some in pots to contain them. Maybe hang them or something. These came underground from a neighbor’s backyard (and those people don’t even live there anymore!). They are worse than the Lotus vine I planted. You’d think I had no experience growing things.
That’s probably because you haven’t grown too many robots!
