​The soft furry-looking buds of Pussywillows are one of the first signs of spring. They appear long before leaves appear on the stalks, and their grayish fluffy appearance and soft furriness have earned them the name catkins- "little cats." 


The students at Blue Church Art had fun drawing and painting pussywillow catkins. The youngest students used crayon, colored pencil, and q-tips dipped in white paint to create their beautiful pussywillow branches.
