Aw, thanks Jean! And yes, spring IS arriving! I have some brave crocuses weathering the early nip of both frost and bunny! They are a joyous beacon of what’s to come…even if they ARE a little ragged around the edges…

Mary I checked out your blog site. It looks wonderful! (I shall put you in my links) You have been busy I can see… and as always your beautiful work is a standout! I’m pleased to hear you will be entering upcoming shows… the world deserves to see at least that much of the magnificent Mary Jansen. Have always loved your watercolours. Stay warm… spring is on it’s way!

Funny thing…your positive attitude oozed out of my computer and melted all the snow in Chicagoland prepping the grounds for spring! I actually have some brave crocuses and daffys poking up through the leaf duff. They aren’t blooming by a long shot but just to see some green is encouraging enough!
As for painiting…well…yes! Madly painting…well…I am a little nuts at times. Lately it’s been miniatures. If you want you can see some on my blog at:
marymjansen.blogspot.com
There are a couple of spring shows coming up that I’d like to enter. After that I’m going to give my eyes a rest and paint on larger paper again, (if my eyes still work after these, that is!) Once spring hits full throttle though…nothing will keep me inside in the studio. I’m a hopeless sucker for all that blooms and grows!

Thanks Mary… it’s a very good feeling to think that I might have made someone somewhere happy by something I did! I know… there’s a heck of a lot of “somes” in there… but hey. (((LOL))) How is Chicagoland? Has the snow taken up yet? And are you painting madly?

I always feel happy after reading your blog Jean! What a great way to cap the day!
(Oh, and Roger…come by and say hello when you visit Chicago in June! I’m sure I’ll recognize you…the man glued to his sketchbook! Ha!)
