Pink Hyacinth


I adore the fragrance of hyacinth, and the sweet scent of this forced bulb wafts through the whole downstairs.  This bulb is very thirsty, I am adding water every day as I see new blooms starting to rise.  When this lovely is past her glory, I will plant her in the garden to continue for all the years to come.  I love the very timeless nature of these bulbs.  With ink and watercolor I capture first bloom in our farmhouse on handmade cotton paper.  It's a small ATC size to match my very small painting window tonight.  Some days are so busy I can't find my way to my easel until almost bedtime. I'm hoping for an easier day tomorrow.  Painting number 3344 in 3344 days.
