One of the things I try to do, is sketch along with my kids, when I've given them a sketching assignment. I don't have as many entries in my sketchbook, because I'm usually distracted by my 'little ones' and a good sketch often takes time. I do what I can and I hope to do it more.
Here is one of my sketches of some English Daisies. I'm not sure of their real name as I already threw out the tag. I have them planted in one of about a dozen containers around the house.
(I do not have a 'real' garden yet, we're renovating our yard at the moment, so maybe next year! In the meantime containers will have to do!)
Here are the real ones, although not the exact ones I looked at while sketching. I was trying to focus on the bee, but he's still a bit blurry!
I have not sketched these, yet, but I thought I'd share them anyway as they are just a few of the pretty blooms I have to look at from my kitchen window.
(Petunias and Osteopernum-I think?)
I love planting flowers and watching them bloom. All of the different colours are so pretty.
Hopefully next year I'll have pictures of a real garden to share!
Welcome to my Nature Study blog. I have been influenced greatly by the Charlotte Mason approach to studying God's marvelous creation. I'm learning so much, along with my children, that I'm sharing it with you here. Enjoy!
