Hyacinth = Spring

OK, these are from the store wrapped in foil, not in my garden but they smell so glorious and the purple is so deep and true I had to try to paint them. My garden hyacinths are up and almost 4" tall so they are not far off. Everything is so gray and drab as the snow recedes - I want COLOR. pencil in non WC moleskine followed with WC washes
