This plant is not a consistent performer, but this year she's rocking it. It's been in bloom for a couple weeks, like it knew we're in the Christmas season. I knew I had to sketch it, but I had to wait until seasonal obligations (shopping, house cleaning, xmas cards, etc.) were done and our house was empty of our holiday guests. Not just any guests. We finally get to see our kids and their families. Sketching is not on the priority list of things to do. Wilma and I need to grab all the face time we can. But as soon as they left I had my sketchbook out and absorbed this beautiful plant. Felt better afterwords, too.

What a beautiful layout -- and how appropriate for your Christmas cactus to bloom for you at just the right time!
Nice to see you are drawing again. Welcome back to EDM. It has been very lonely here on the EDM Yahoo Group.
Welcome back, John. It's good to see your charming work again. Your journal entries may seem mundane, but there is a heartfelt honesty to them that I like.
Thanks for the comments! It's good to be back and I'm glad to recognize some names. So many blogs I've followed have gone away. We'll see if I can keep it up.
