Almond blossoms and painted faces

This lady is taking the slow train to completion. I'm hoping as my skills develop so will my speed, at the moment I wait painstakingly at every step to see if it has worked or not. It is a lovely process though and I am happy with the way things are working.

The almond trees are in full blossom now, I pass them on my way to and from the toilet - a low hummmmm of many busy bees!!
