a frayed knot

ALT: ink and watercolor, abstract. think colors and twisty dribbly shapes like early autumn vegetation, still blooming but starting to hoard vitality in seed and roots rather than leaves and flowers.

fragments from the end of summer

ALT: ink and watercolor doodle. something like the seedhead from a spent flower up top, the wing of an insect perhaps, the butt of a hornet, and a line of yellow ovals – bubbles of pollen? – drifting across.

winding to center

ALT: ink and watercolor. a ball of red yarn at the bottom right corner, lots of swooping concentric lines with lots of imaginary writing along them, enclose a space that has maybe two people, or maybe it’s just the nose of a cat poking through.

ink island pines

ALT: ink and watercolor, brush painting resembling three pines on a rocky island over purple water and under a purple sky.

cheers

ALT: ink and watercolor doodle of a butterfly with orange wings and a stripey yellow caterpillar-like body, proudly perched on a red and purple flower under blue skies and a big round yellow dish of a sun.

garden pot

ALT: ink and watercolor loose painting of a red planter pot with a couple kinds of houseplant leaves growing out. outside and in front of the pot there are a couple of flowers. my little house is pretty dark, so the houseplants all get to live outside as long as it’s warm enough. some get stuck into the ground, but some just stay in their pots, as these did.

summer selfie

ALT: ink and watercolor, sort of abstract, looks like the heads of two hooded faceless people superimposed on tangles of green and inky gray.

ALT: watercolor and ink, abstract. another tangle, with primary color splotches ground, woven over with black and white ink lines in a rather tangled mess.
