"IF: CRAVE..."

Right now in my art life I seen to CRAVE the marriage of
lavish juicy color and my faithful Pitt pen...
stimulated
by a healthy dose
of the magical desert southwest,
...a "pop" or two
of a zentangle inspired design for spice...
all tossed together and dressed with
a trading session of ATC cards,
the joy of visiting fellow artists' blogs,
and
trying to keep my artistic muse engaged.
I am addicted to art
and
there's no stopping me.
I CRAVE! :)
Now...
does anyone know where I put the dark chocolate? :)

Illustration Friday: "Crave"

Margaret,
Whoosh. I crave to know how you think this stuff up! Your imagination is like those circles entwined in the prickly cactus. It dares to go even into risky places. Like the cactus wren it can land safely in territory most of us are afraid of. Much inspiration to all of us who just fly around wishing we could land there.
