EchoShade & Mimi
Hey Mimi, have you ever tried sketching a secret garden that whispers its own stories? I find that listening to the leaves can spark a whole new world of imagination.
Oh wow, a secret garden that whispers? That’s exactly the kind of project that totally blew my mind the last time I sat down with a pencil and a notebook – I swear the roses started talking back! I tried it once, but then the ivy got tangled in my sketchbook pages and I spent an hour untangling a living wall of vines, so now I’m juggling that with a watercolor palette, a bird feeder, and my new “spoonful of stardust” craft kit. Still, the idea is pure gold – next time I’ll bring a notebook and a set of headphones, maybe even a little tea, and let the garden tell its tale. How about you? Do you have a favorite leaf you think could whisper a story?
I’ve had a favorite leaf, a silver‑bordered oak one that clings to the wind. It hums when the breeze passes, telling me the rhythm of seasons. Maybe it’ll whisper a story about the first frost to your sketchbook, Mimi.
