The Blue Rose

My niece did this drawing for me. First she asked her father if you get blue roses and he said yes. Then the blue pen leaked and so the one rose smudged, but we rewrote the story - a stem of blue roses in a vase got caught in the draught and ruffled the petals on the largest rose.

The others are buds so they wouldn't be affected by the wind. What you can't see on the photograph is the the vase is metallic gold, classy, but what you can see is how thirsty that plant is, there is hardly any water left in the vase.

I just love the drawing. I framed it and hung it on the wall.
