It's early Spring. Im walking up the flower lined cement walkway to my Opa and Omas House. I get to the front steps and there's a terracotta pot full of bright and happy pansy's sitting on the top of their three steps. They are also in lines of baskets in their glass greenhouse in the front yard. I can't still smell the musty dirt and feel the sunshiny way the pansy's make me feel. I miss them everyday. I will always have pansy's by my front door in early spring. They don't even mind the cold. Pansy's also known as Hearts Ease, Kiss-me-at-the-garden-gate, and Bouncy Betty. These pieces are a sliver of my heart on gorgeous sustainable logged cedar. Painted with acrylic and details done with pen. They are sealed, but i don't recommend running them under water or keeping them in a bathroom. The cedar will darken over time naturally and knots can fall out if pushed on or played with. This Piece in 13.5cm vertically, and 22cm Horizontally.
