Close your eyes and imagine: the sound of birds, the smell of wild flowers, the warmth of sunlight on your skin. No matter how cold winter has been, there’s no stopping spring from coming. We’ve gathered illustrations that are brimming with colour and the promise of warmer days to come. Whether with gouache and markers, or pastels and pencils, we’d like to celebrate the creative minds behind these pieces and the beauty of a fresh start with every change of the season! Dear spring, we are waiting for you!
