Tired of winter, I titled this 'Hoping for Spring.' Do you think we have to wait another whole month??

That is beautiful! You may be waiting another month, but I'll be waiting at least 3 before I see any of crocuses pop up in my yard. We had minus 8 this morning before we left for church. I was glad to see that the welcome sunshine put us up 18 degrees by the time we got home.

What size is your work of art and how did you do the flowers?

My goodness, the picture is so realistic, while it was slowly loading I thought it was of a flower garden! Really beautiful! And the Raleigh area IS so lovely in the spring.

But one more month? I'm betting for us it'll be more like 7-8 weeks. Yet reading your post did make me have a rethink of how quickly Dec/Jan have passed and how soon the bone-chilling cold *will* be over. One can stand anything for less than 2 months, surely!

You work is beautiful and left me hopeful that Spring will arrive. We have well over 2 feet on the ground and another bid Nor'easter on the way. :-(
