Make spring happen - now!




Let the sunshine in!
Some pictures from a new KidsLife-fashion shoot from last sunday. We had planned to go outside and do something with a big tractor. But it was just simply too cold, So we stayed inside and played in my studio  with colors, flowers and fruit, using some of my big paintings as a colorful background.

    What a beautiful little girl with that big smile! And your vivacious paintings evoke spring instantly!!

    Buds are beginning to open up here on trees and spring bulbs beginning to pop up from the ground. Spring is coming and I can't wait :)

    OH my, this is just lovely, cheery, bright, happy, it is just joy!!!! Thanks for bringing SPRING to blogland Martina, although I should not complain about the low 50s in Vegas, but I do feel the brutally cold winter in other part of the world. Yes, Spring, definitely is near!

    MARTINA! Your posts are always so vibrant and filled with color. Dearest, do you know that I have never been one for a lot of color? teeehee....I don't know why, but bright colors, I just never knew how to use them. YOU along with some other bloggers that have a similar style to yours have taught me to look at these pastels with a different eye. THAT CHILD is so beautiful! Ohhhh, you are welcoming in spring with this photo! WE ALL COULD USE SPRING NOW! We escaped the HUGE snow storm that has swept and overloaded part of our country. But the bitter cold is very dangerous and yesterday the children were not allowed outside for their recess. When it is 20-30 below zero Farenheit, it is much to risky for frostbite!!!! We are almost there dearest, ALMOST OVER WITH THIS COLD, and I believe the COLDEST winter in many years!

    I am so glad to hear you are coming back to health and I too and dealing with what can make my job a challenge with the attitude that TAKE A MOMENT SLOWLY and THINK!!!!

    Now I must get ready for another cold journey to school. Happy day dearest and keep warm and healthy! BISES, Anita

    Alles liebe xxxx
