As I listen to news of the protest in Madison,

memory echoes of Gordon Bok’s “Another Land Made of Water”

Color pencil, Prismacolor art stick

Veils and swords. Another bug princess dancing. Under all this snow spring is stirring, we’re heading towards the light time, the warm time.

Pen & ink, colored pencil, watercolor.

Winter winding down but snow pack still high; hungry time. Moon tangled in the antlers of trees. Still waiting.

India ink, water soluble crayon

No drawing today; these are the fruits of my annual February collage party.
