January 2012 Challenge "Paint away the Winter Blues" Hosted by Linda Young

SAY GOODBYE TO WINTER
AND PAINT AWAY THE WINTER BLUES

Welcome to the new Daily Painters of Pennsylvania Challenge Blog for January!

With the Winter's chill in the air, I look forward to the ice melting on the goldfish pond; anticipate the greening of leaves and the return of Spring.  Ah! the warmth of Springtime is on my mind!  Here's the fish in my backyard pond right after they were fed. There's a little feeding frenzy going on and there's a lot of movement to the water in this challenge; I hope it fills you with a little inspiration of the Spring that is on the way.
