Yo


I'm not sure I'm terribly happy with this piece. I did it last night from a doodle I did during a boring meeting I was in. I'm having fun, though. This is ink, watercolour and gouache on cold-pressed paper.

Hey Roger, Some very nice pics. but this is my favorite.(sunflower) Sunflowers remind me of my rural heritage,(ok , the farm) and freedom as they flow in the wind and reach for the sky. Ah, I know you must be thinking, "what a contradiction" as most most people probably see me as black and white, but really-I'm colorful, and like the watercolor medium a little soft around the edges too.. tee hee!

It lives with Bill and Andrea.
