about to burst

Oh how I love my red bud. They buds are just about ready to burst open into their light pink color. I also tried to paint the background yellow with my neighbor's forsythia in bloom for added depth and a shock of color.

This looks like it could be a woodblock print. Beautiful colors against the soft background.
