We are having unexpectedly balmy weather here in Baltimore. Some flowers are even popping their heads sheepishly out of the ground and deciding to bloom. All this lovely weather made my brain think of shoots and leaves and while I was thinking of an illustration for theme of Botanical for the 52-Week Illustration Challenge this flowery bearded man popped into my head and I thought, why not? He does look like every hipster in skinny jeans around but he also has that Pan Greek mythology look too.
Linking up to Paint Party Friday, Sunday Sketches and Brilliant Blog Posts.
Love your flower-power Greek god, great! Happy PPF, hugs, Valerie

I know-or at least I don't think -that Shakespeare wore a head and beard of flowers but he is who I thought of immediately when I saw this wonderful painting!It's still cold here but gradually warming and by Sunday we should be about 62 degrees-yes! Happy PPF and enjoy the weekend.
