SPEED


Ink and Caran d'Ache Aquarelles on paper. 4.25 in. by 6.25 in. This started out as just a sketch in pen and ink. I started using the aquarelles to test out my color idea. I was having so much fun that I decided not to paint it afterall and just post this. The little car was a toy I sketched a few years ago (we had purchased it as a gift for child). For some reason I thought of it immediately when I saw this week's topic. Posted by Picasa

I think it's really cute!
And therefore I have a question:
Would you like to draw (or otherwise create) your favorite song and post it at PlayArt (http://playart.punt.nl)? It would be great!

If you have any questions, just send me an e-mail.

This rules Lexi! The colors and swirls remind me of a cross between The Starry Night and the Scream.
