Trying something new...

Flower girl
The one medium that I am most uncomfortable with is watercolor or any derivation of it.  I see it, I run.  But if I keep doing that, I will never know my potential with this medium.  So I started small.  The flowers are in watercolor and the rest is pencil.
One of my best friends was actually my source of inspiration for this one.  She recently hi-lighted her hair blue and I can't wait to see it!
Well, I can't say I'm comfortable with watercolor, but I'm going to incorporate it more often into my work.  Practice, practice, practice...speaking of which, I'm going to switch over to music mode now.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Peace and love,
Mary xoxo

Daydreaming...

Sea of Love
Sometimes my drawings take on a life of their own.  I can't really say what my source of inspiration was for this piece.  But, I am totally in love with the color palette and the way her hair turned out.  I hope you like it just as much as I do.

Have a wonderful weekend everybody!
Peace and love,
Mary xoxo

Firefly

Once again I found my inspiration from lyrics penned by Sal.  He uses words to create a landscape in your mind's eye.  Lucky for me, it's currently posted on his site so you can have a listen.  Click on "Sal's music".  See what kind of picture is created in your mind's canvas.
