( Serendipity )

( And the baking begins... )

The other thing I've been doing, besides spending more time with Babe than I'm comfortable with, is reading pulp. By the end of this weekend, I think I shall be completely caught up on the adventures of Stephanie Plum. Gawd, that's funny stuff. Mostly. Book eight (or was it seven?) wasn't terribly funny, but then I wasn't in a great mood that night.

I've also been looking at, and working on (a very little), my exchange piece. I think I'll be able to get it done in time. (Hope springs eternal.) I am also currently ignoring the looming deadline of the holiday fair. I'm waffling on whether to cancel or to print out the digital images and make them into the cards. I'll still have original stuff and real prints, just not on the cards... *sigh* I don't know. I'm delaying thinking about it till Sunday. There's too much on my mind right now.

Anyway, I should head to bed now, as it is very late. Need to clean up the kitchen first, but then... Sweet Morpheus will call and leave his twisted imprint upon my mind.

Goodnight!

So, here are a few versions of a new sketch I did today that I'm reasonably happy with.

Oh, and they may be placed in pairs, but they aren't necessarily paired up.


There's another design as well, but I'm not as happy with it, so I'm not going to show it yet.  I need to do some research before I'll be happy with it, I suspect.

So... Thoughts? Critiques? Help?

I do hope you'll pardon the spam.

So, this is what I've come up for design #2, which was (is) considerably more difficult to work with than #1. Don't precisely know why, but I have a feeling it has something to do with being a more complete image in and of itself.

So... Here are the ten versions I've come up with so far (that don't make me want to vomit).


So, how 'bout them apple leaves?
(Yes, they're maples, but give a girl a bit of license, please.)

I need your opinions.

Before I ask for your opinions, however, I want to state first that you do NOT NEED TO BE AN ARTIST TO HAVE AN OPINION ON ART. That is a falicy continued by art critics to protect their careers. Fact is, if only artists could truly appreciate and support art, we wouldn't have any artists in the world. Or at least no new art.

So, that said, I have a question. Or two.

But first, the pictures:

So, now the questions. (Please?)
