A HINT OF SPRING
An Original Oil Painting
by Claire Beadon Carnell


'A Hint of Spring'
Oil on Panel
8 x 16



Two weeks ago I found this wonderful hyacinth
bulb starter, shich was supposed to have a blue hyacinth.
  I took it home and checked it each day to see how
much it had grown.  As soon as the bloom started to
appear, I knew it was going to be pink - but I didn't
mind a bit!  I also realized that I was going to have 
to find some time during the Thirty Paintings in Thirty Days
Challenge to paint this.  I hope that it brings a 
Hint of Spring to you when you look at it.

Thank you, Chris. I had so much fun painting it, even if I had to squeeze it in between challenge paintings!
