Illustration Friday – Poise

I finished this piece not too long ago. It's called "Waiting for the Flood." The two women show great poise, even in the eventuality of something disastrous coming. This is in honor of those who have gone through hurricanes, hunger, losing jobs, adversity – and are still able to show poise, grace, faith and strength. Sorry the photo isn't better – I just couldn't seem to get a nice, bright shot of this one.

Illustration Friday – Subtract

At first I was totally at a loss by this week’s theme. Then I was thinking about a piece I just finished last night for an upcoming show with the theme of “Are U Angry?”…I think there’s a tie-in. This piece is called Worthy of Anger – and it was inspired by a friend of mine who lives his life firmly on the path of peace and social justice. Someone who is unwilling to subtract, to take away, from what he holds important and things that are worth getting angry about.

Illustration Friday – Legendary

She was legendary for her hairstyles - but most of all, for the roses that grew in winter. Most people called it miraculous.

Illustraton Friday – Intricate

I did this piece a while ago, but I immediately thought of it with all the different patterns. Seemed perfect for the "intricate" topic.

Illustration Friday – Breezy

Well, I guess I am still in my wistful, hoping for spring mood. Just couldn't help myself when I saw this week's topic. Just want one of those gentle spring breezes...
