EDM 217 Umbrella

Friday it poured buckets, I even heard thunder - this challenge is very appropriate - I always found clusters of umbrellas rather artistic so I tried that approach, the top and bottom inserts seemed playful - Bright sun and 60 degrees today but More rain and cold coming tomorrow! April showers you know . . .

This is great - I love the effect you have acheived with the three different 'bands' of drawing.

What a great page... I love the water drops on the bottom, and your umbrellas are shaded so nicely and look truly 3D... this is wonderful, I may try to copy your umbrella technique... as we have rain headed our way today
