“I set out to do a still life of an apple, and then I don’t know what happened.”

Too funny.

Love these, Rina! A pleasure to scroll through them. The one you described as less free is far from tight, and it looks like it popped right out of a children's book to me.

Thanks for saying that, Anne! Sometimes I can’t step outside of my own work to really “see” it. You know how it is! Anyway, I really appreciate the feedback!🙂

Theses aren't "slapped together"; they're authentic snapshots of your expressive work. Keep it going!

These are so fun. “What the f**k” looks like something straight out of a Monty Python movie!

Ha! Big fan of Monty Python… so thank you for saying that!😊

I love them, and I like that you’ve given them a life here outside the closed book. The ‘finished piece’ captures the tension so well with comedy. I love that the pillow behind the figure looks strangely like the thing they are scared of. Thanks for sharing them.

I never saw that! Thanks for this insight!🙂

Lovely! I really like the cat in bed and the mouse looking in.

I love "The Crowd." It reminds me of a 1950s paperback book cover using just red & black ink. A striking page!

Thanks, Wayno! ….weirdly I thought the same thing — the bright red with black! We’re on the same wavelength👌🙂
