Tasmania 1

I went to Tasmania January 2005.　
Blue wren and Scarlet Robin gave me best impression.
83 species birds were recorded by me, so many wonderful landscapes, good scenes and many plants made me happy.
And so my sketches were over 160 sheets in Tasmania and Sydney.

This fruits was sweet, delicious and lovely.
And there were everywhere in Tasmania.
When the fruit are aged its color changes dark violet color.

Fresh blue is very beautiful. It blooms till summer and they give peacefulness to

Ebine ”Calanthe discolor"

When the flower of a cherry tree finished, under a copse, this flower obtains bright sunlight and blooms.
There are also many cultivation kinds, so there are many lovers.
At my home, it began to bloom five days before.

In order to remove distortion of paper, it soaked in water, the surroundings were stopped on the tape, and it was made the plane.
A picture is photoed with a digital camera.

Calanthe discolor "Ebine"

This flower is in full bloom in my yard.
I drew this flower, but my scanner breaks down. So I cannot carry on this blog.
This is drawing of the first stage.

Flowering Dogwood

Now, the flower of Dogwood is a season in full bloom.
Dogwood "Comus florida" is a North America native deciduous tree.

Since the origin of the name presented flea extermination and the skin disease of a dog with the juice which brewed the bark, the name attached it.
Its meaning is the tree for a dog maybe.

The upper picture is YAMABOUSHI "Comus Kousa" which grows wild in Japan.
And English name is Japanese strawberry tree.
This is the plant of the same family as Dogwood.

Greater priwinkle (Vinca major)

Greater priwinkle (TSURU-NITI-NITI-SO) is the native evergreen climbing plant of the Mediterranean coast.
It is robust and strong also to dryness, and it is planted in the garden etc. and also, by the way, has field-ized.
It continues blooming one after another.
The plant of a potted plant escaped and it is in bloom in the garden in my yard now.

It's flowers are beautiful with soft spring sunlight.
The flower, the leaf and the fruit are beautiful in each season.

Spider lily

I saw this flower in Hawaii, Australia and New Zealand.
This flower seems like a spider.
The petals are like a spider’s legs.
The family is Crinumea, and there are Crinum asiatium var. japonicum “HAMAYU” in Japan.
It’s beautiful but very unusual.
This picture was drawn in Cairns Australia 3 years ago, 2002.

A nostalgic picture

The yellow rose picture was found today, and it was drawn five years ago.
There are special recollections in this yellow rose.
I can remember of those days longingly.
I was having a large-sized sketchbook and went out here and there at that time.

Now, I have used the small sketchbook of a postcard size regularly.

The cherry trees are in full bloom now.
Are you enjoying to see cherry blossom?
