Description
This watercolor of yellow roses and pink and lavender forget-me-knots was created from a larger painting of mine. How insignificant and small the forget-me-knots appear, and yet what richness and beauty their presence brings to the yellow roses.
You know nothing in God's creation is insignificant no matter how small it is... especially you and I. Since we are made in God's image we have significance and purpose. Our lives become a blessing to others when they are drawn to the sweet perfume of His grace, and it captures their hearts with the scent of spring.♥
