Hi, I'm Andrea, and I'm interested in creatures and plants both wild and tamed, and people of all sorts. I only use a compact digital camera ,as I love being able to get it into a back pocket, and not have to cart heavy kit about. I carry a Panasonic Lumix TZ series, binoculars and a hand lens almost everywhere.Most of my outings are with the dogs so I only use point and shoot.
I am getting the hang of Photoshop, thanks to some very kind folk on RR!
I have a wildlife garden in Bournemouth, Dorset, in the UK, and spend a lot of time there . I retired from teaching art to teenagers a while ago.
I'm now getting some good results with my digi compacts; it took me a while to make the switch from my old film camera, an 1960 ish Pentax Spotmatic, but the mistakes are much cheaper!
I have 4 lodgers, 3 dogs and a parrot who, as at 2017, I have had 40 years.
I has so far had 19 dogs, mostly rescues.

I agree with you. Lots of rain here in California which seems to be an end to our drought. Blizzards almost everywhere else. A lovely ode to Spring.

captures the real doldrums of winter. It's all washed over in a dark wash feeling, and the lady---who seems bald---looks blahed out. Another terrific cartoonish portrait, and I love the green of her outfit, and the flowers (ironic), and that almost formal background with what could be jail bars. Love it. I always love when you post drawings.

I'm looking forward to Spring as well, but not because it's cold here! We've been having temps in the low 80s regularly. Our plan is to spend April in Virginia, which should be lovely. I like your springtime "maiden" very much. She looks quite ready for the glories of the coming season!

Funny interpretation, would be cold now without a hat and fur 😉
