Spring in Art
We are waiting for Spring. Winter was cold and too long in this year. Spring is nice season. Spring is the symbol of the beginning and the rebirth. Several artists were inspired by the spring. I shared on my Facebook page paintings, sculptures and other artworks about spring. I collected some of those pictures in this post. Enjoy 🙂
