Graceful Changes

Fall Fire watercolor on Yupo  5x7" by Meera Rao

Season is changing again - we turned our clocks forward and of course love the signs of spring  everywhere.  I was doing the spring ritual of cleaning my studio, moving my paintings around and realized I never did post this painting of the firey bushes from my backyard.  They greeted me when I got back from my trip to India and I was taken away by their beauty.  The bushes are now once again showing signs of greeting the spring after the cold winter. 

I came across a slide show from NASA Jet Propulsion Lab about Change of Seasons- view from space. Check out the slides for an enlightening view of changing seasons as seen from satellite pictures.

Your spring flowers are lovely, and so heartwarming as we sit in chilly anticipation of warmer weather! Also, how interesting to look at the change of season from that perspective! Wouldn't it be fascinating to use those images to create a painting? They look like artwork already.

As graceful as the title says it all, I love this depiction from your backyard, it is amazing to watch nature transforming there by installing in us the joy of hope and optimism.

Thanks Meera, that slide show of the seasons was very interesting and I will share it with my grandson later today. I hope things are good with you.

Thank you, Katherine! Yes it would make interesting paintings --actually some satellite pics look like paintings, no?
