I just noticed this photo in my phone--it caught a moment in between two chalk drawings. The espresso cup was starting to cover over the portrait of a girl. I don't always remember to catch these transitions, but I love looking back at them.

Starting a new chalk on our walk for late March/early April, keeping the circle still visible from the Three Hares drawing. So when you have a big circle, Mucha comes to mind, right?
Now the circle has circles with circles. And she has daffodils, and a cat. And her dress is purple. Still in progress.

Pandemic chalk: Three Hares (birthday edition)

Restored the Three Hares after a little rain last week, and added a birthday greeting for my kid. It's supposed to rain again tomorrow, so this is a one-day drawing. :)

For spring equinox 2022, I started a chalk drawing based on the Three Hares motif. A few hours after this point in its progress, it was mostly washed away by rain. But I may try to revive it before Easter.
