It looks like Summer is beginning to arrive at last as the honeysuckle & columbine are blooming colourfully. Here are our two old friends again, making their way to church - they are wrapped up in their Winter coats, though, so maybe today isn't such a warm day. The flag flying on the church's flag pole seems to suggest it might be St. George's day, which is 23rd April - a little early for the honeysuckle to be blooming, surely? Maybe the artist has used a little 'poetic licence'. I spy the blackbird in the painting - can you find him? The artist usually finds a space for him!

Information from the internet: 'A feast day of St George has been celebrated in England for hundreds of years on 23 April, which was possibly the date of his martyrdom. Following the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, St George's Day became one of the most important feast days in the English calendar'.

I'm glad you found it, @YaHuw. Yes, I like Karla Gerard's folk art, too, & I have some 12th scale mini prints of hers waiting to be framed to put into one of my dolls houses. Thanks for your visit.

I found it B4 I worked the puzzle. Artist Karla Gerard often uses black birds in her work, also a black cat or both.
