Begin Again - A Spring Collage

Noticing that many of the recent Artist as Collector posts on this blog were paintings or prints with a cooler palette- a winter theme, I am switching gears and posting a collage for the first day of spring. (yippee! spring!)

This began as a watercolor that I did at the hospital two years ago after my surgery at Memorial Sloan Kettering.  I pulled it out after I created a collage from another watercolor done at that time. (They had a sunny room for patients and their families with live music and lots of art supplies.)

That collage became a SendOutCard Thank you campaign I sent to people who have supported me along the way (if I missed YOU- let me know and I will be happy to send you one, too!)  The cards were well received and I revisited the other watercolors I did that afternoon and went back and worked on them as well.

Perfect for spring, two years post surgery (feeling well- and blessed, thank you.)

Here's to new beginnings....

Happy Spring! What are you looking forward?
