At this time of year signs that spring and then summer are on their way are very welcome.
This week I’ve been noticing more and more the parks and cities green spaces have been exploding into colour as firstly the snow drops and now the crocuses and daffodils come into their own. Over the coming weeks the colours will only intensify and Edinburgh Council has to take some of the credit in making our city look so beautiful at this time of year.
The above sketch on Victoria Park in North Edinburgh was drawn between showers on a bright, cloudy, wet and sunny day in the capital. Enjoy the colour and energy of the current floral display, and why not try and capture it in a watercolour sketch?

@edinsketcher Couldn’t agree more. #leith links looks amazing with the paths flanked either side with gorgeous pastel crocuses.
@edinsketcher you should have popped in to mine for a coffee!
