Okay, that song is in my head as I scan some sketches from my walk around the fern glades area of the Geelong Botanical Gardens a few days ago. (Note; this blogsite gets the dates wrong - it's on American time perhaps, a day early).

These three pics were made using watercolour pencils, biro, and bit of water slapped on. I must ban the biro in the next pictures I do as I get carried away with scribbling and over-do it, then the pictures becomes heavy-handed.
