I love Yeats so suggesting The Song of Wandering Angus or Sailing to Byzantium. I envy you as I have never been able to successfully memorise poetry. Even my favorite sonnet 60 by Shakespeare.

Thanks for the tip!

Happy St David’s Day to you. This is gorgeous. I will have to try pencil and watercolor, I love this effect.

Love this photo!

A grid of 12 inchies (two inch squares) of patterned in ink and watercolor.

My 12 inchies from the @amymaricle challenge. Some I like better than others but I’m intrigued by my color choices and how much I like this grid. Lots of new starting points.
