hurry up

ALT: water-soluble crayon. it’s a snail, sort of. Eyes on long stalks, and a rather judgmental glare.

star of possibility

ALT: water-soluble crayon, abstract, messily decorative. lines that form a rather poorly drawn star with extra points, as if the artist didn’t really know how to draw the familiar 5-point line for a star. there are vines climbing around it, and in the spaces calligraphic shapes that could be fruit, a bell, a bird, or whatever you might imagine. Colors are mainly in the range of muted orange and blue.

the twittering hedge

ALT: water-soluble crayon. several little birds land and perch in and around some mostly bare bushes in a snowy landscape.

some rocks can learn to fly

ALT: water-soluble crayon. Rocks on or under the ground take up the lower 3/4 of the paper; in the upper quadrant a few more rocks have somehow sprouted wings and are making their way aloft

Completion.

ALT: calligraphic abstract, green-blue and purple, a circle held balanced in upturned arcs.

decorated majesty

ALT: water-soluble crayon. portrait of a cat, tuxedo pattern but purple not black, wearing sort of an elizabethan ruff and a bit of a stylized halo. I wanted to rest my self by making patterns and decorations.

lights in the brambles

ALT: water-soluble crayon. a thicket of twisty branches is adorned with four yellow globes with red spirals on them. there’s also a slightly ominous eye shape among the trunks, red with a blue spiral. don’t worry, I’m sure all is well.

gathering

ALT: water-soluble crayon. close view of a smiling face, holding two seashells (scallop and whelk)

Yule tree is decked out and shiny

ALT: crayon drawing (water-soluble caran d’ache). it’s a pine tree with sparkly stuff in the branches, some stars scattered about in the background, and my two cats Wrack and Ruin admiring the indoor forest.

wish stitch

ALT: crayon drawing, abstract. Sort of a purple ribbon tied loosely in a knot, a frame of brown twiggy stuff, with orange streamers flowing off it. there’s a wispy, breezy feel to the whole thing I think.
