Forsythia

We had Forsythia shrubs in our yard growing up, and their cheerful blooms were always the first sign of spring. After seeing a painting by another artist, Azra Iqbal, I was inspired to paint some myself.  It has taken me a couple of weeks to get my hands on a sprig of my own, and I caught it just in time; the Forsythia shrub sheds its flowers, and turns completely green right about now.
