Day 29 Winter's Promise

Winter's Promise I painted this poor old dried out amaryllis bulb that has been sitting in a rusty coffee can down in the corner of my basement studio since last August . . . I gave it a big drink of water and was shocked to see it already had a little bit of green growth . . . this little guy was a present from my dear painting pal Mary several years ago . . . and I bet she's surprised I haven't managed to kill it yet. . . now that is upstairs in the sunny window. . . the new growth has already doubled in size . . .. . . if this little bugger can make it through winter . . . so can we! Enjoy!
