©Kathleen Rietz (today's image is for Leon)Any of you who know me well know that Easter has a much deeper meaning to me than bunnies and coloring eggs. But I do enjoy the images of spring this time of year. Here in Chicago there is a winter storm warning today. I could use a little springtime festivities right now! Happy Easter everyone!
By the way, if you have some time this weekend, check out an interview with me An Interview with Kate! and see what else us Picture Bookies have been up to!
This "hoppy" drawing is the perfect image to view before sleeping! Such a happy springy feeling! I will dream about pastel colored eggs and sunny skies. :) And yes, Easter means a whole lot more to me too. Hoppy Easter Kate!
ReplyDeleteI love this one-the bunny looks great and the picture looks just like how spring should be. Easter means way more to me too!Bye!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy your illustrations. So much life and color!
ReplyDeleteAnd, Happy Easter to you. As Easter has a deeper meaning to me too, you have inspired me to draw and post two sketches I had in mind for this holiday.
So adorable as always!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! Really captures the Spring feeling.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful. As much as Easter means to so many the fact that we also celebrate with eggs and flowers reminds us all of the rebirth that is about to occur. Your illustration shows such a sense of joy!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathleen...this is a wonderful illustration...makes me want to run in the grass and go on an egg hunt...what fun! you truly capture the fun and happy times of childhood....

Happy Easter, Kate! I enjoyed your interview. I agree with your advice to writers and illustrators--anything is possible with hard work. Like Diana, my favorite part of the interview was your response to what movtivates you. Your talent is certainly a gift. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun way to depict the joy of Easter! Blessings to you.
