"Magnolia Music"

Watercolor on Paper

30 x 40

So it is usually in February when a small Magnolia Tree in my backyard blooms. This year it seems not quite there yet at that stage,... can see the buds becoming plump.

So simple to see each one open..each beautiful in it's own particular shape, color.

When this painting was finished and I was about to title it, I set it against a wall to get some distance, take it in.

Looked like the notes on a scale, some beautiful melody.
