I am in a spring kind of mood and since my last drawing I see more blossoms although real fine weather is only due for next week. I guess it is just a transitional period of time between winter and spring, exactly what I tried to express in this drawing. It still is cold but there is this promiss of spring. I kept the tree on the left mildy cubistic while other elements are rather impressionistic. At the back ‘De Salamander’ is situated, a wood mill and landmark at Leidschendam.
