    HI Margaret
    I love yr dandelion - what I notice immediately is how perfectly round it is!
    I also love your watercolour - nice details with those little buds. The little weed appears big in your painting.
    Have a nice week, Evelyn

    Dandelion clocks - the joy of children. Dandelion wine - the joy of adults.

    Love your painting of the dandelion. I think it's the first I've ever seen. Painting that is...dandelions are my number one favorite flower.
