You may know that in addition to my poetry I also do art, posted on my blog Claudia McGill and Her Art World. For the next several months I will be posting here a combined art/poetry project, Large Artist Sketchbook 2020.
I fill up sketchbooks with all kinds of art. Some contain images only and some of them I use the images as inspiration for poetry. In these books the image is on one page of the spread and the poetry on the other. This book is set up in this manner.
I’ll show you the image and then add the poem that goes with it. See what you think.

“yellow potential
and green hope”–
that describes spring perfectly. Your art looks full of that potential, too. I love the colors.
Thank you. Just looking at this myself makes me all ready to plant a garden and get seeds growing, though of course I know I will need to wait.
Something to look forward to.
Love the painting- it makes me smile 😀
Spring will be coming around again, yes it will!
