This time of year / Lathyrus

It’s THIS time of year again. The time that the lovely sweet peas bloom. Not as much as in the last years for it is very dry over here. We had very little rain during the last weeks. But nevertheless they bloom and I just have to paint them. Es ist wieder so weit, die…
