By the time you’re reading this, I’ll be headed up north for this year’s Tulip Festival. The last time I was there, the day I made this sketch, the weather was iffy at best. At this time of year, forecasts aren’t worth all that much, so I’m just crossing my fingers and hoping for decent sketching weather. I guess we’ll see what Monday’s post will hold…hopefully something flowery and colorful.
Hope we all have a sunny weekend!
My hometown, Ottawa, has a pretty nice tulip festival each year. It takes place in mid-May and has been going on since the early 1950s. Queen Beatrice of the Neatherlands was born in Ottawa during WWII and as a goodwill gesture, they send us tulip bulbs each year. I’ll have to remember to make a sketch and post it this year!
