It was one of those darn winters that didn't want to quit! The only place that the beauty of rosy cheeks, and glistening diamond studded snow looked good was on a ski trail or a snowshoeing tract in the deep woods. But glorious news! Finally the first harbingers of spring have arrived and birdsongs can be heard everywhere! The long sleep of a dark very cold winter is slowly, very slowly, shedding its blanket for the Bright colors of spring, peeking through the earth and store front windows. Inspiration for creative minds are all a flow. I need a shot of Spring so I went to Greene Street in Soho to be inspired by the talented Gudrun Sjoden. Spring is Asian inspired….
