Sunday Sketches

My first sketch of the lovely oriental dogwood that I planted last year. Each day the flowers seem to get more pink and today they are coral. Guess I will need to do another rendition of the flower.....

I have another watercolor painting in progress on my drafting table at the moment.

This is one GORGEOUS tree!
