image: Girl in Bloom

This image is in the same line as Sprouting and Bonsai People I posted earlier to my blog. And cherry blossoms were actually in bloom at the time. Sometimes I wonder why people attach so much importance to going out to view cherry trees in bloom, and yet I admit they are magnificent at full bloom and totally engaging when falling petals dance like snow in the air.

Done in Painter 11 with customized brushes.
