He carried a small book.
Not just any book, but what turned out to be a field guide to area wildflowers.
What excitement!
We'd spy a flower, find it in the book!
Discover its name!
Today, I've created a scrappy patch of summer lawn.

So fun Dotty :) Lovely memories, I am sure :) Flower treasures ;)
Thanks, Sheila. Very sweet memories. Fun to paint them. Well, I didn't really paint them—I think I painted, and then found the memories there.
A glorious memory! My dad carried a bird book when we took walks. :) This floral patch is lovely...the texture - a catalyst wedge?
I LOVE this in every way!!!
Love this post - the memories and the painting. All that great texture and colour!!
LOVE that your dad carried a bird book when you took walks : )
Yes, part of the texture is from a catalyst tool.
: )
Joje, do you remember that walk? Not sure why it stands out so vividly for me, but it does. Tweety Mack!
Thank you, Janet. I take such pleasure in having the act of painting evoke such sweet memories.
A beautiful burst of spring!Bouquet of colors and energy!
Good thing I can create lush spring whenever I wish with paint, because I seem to have no influence whatsoever on spring in the great outdoors here in my neck of the woods! Thanks for your comments, Carol.
