Illustration Friday-Bloom

Spring is here for a few minutes at least in Minnesota, so this weeks theme is definitely perfect. I drew this picture a while back of a miniature willow tree, it was starting to bloom and I thought it to be a little piece of spring in the land of the frozen tundra . I don't generally draw landscapes or things from nature, so this was a departure from my normal routine, but at the time I felt like I needed to capture the moment.

It looks like it's a painted window. The bark could be the iron frame, and the rest of it could be stained glass.
