Illustration Friday - Cultivate


Cultivate was an appropriate prompt word for my family this week. Recently my husband, daughter and I started helping out with our local Landcare/Bushcare group in the hope of cultivating a sense of community spirit and altruism in our daughter.

These grass heads may not be what we will be planting at Bushcare but they're a great place for children to begin leaning about nature. I think we'll make some.

This illustration is a little larger than our scanner so I'm sorry that I couldn't scan it flat.
