Pages 8 through 11


i do not practice minimalism but maximalism......so frustrating when i want to follow the principle that sometimes less is more....ahhh.... Now you will want to ask  me "But why don't you?" and i will answer with 2 round eyes and a blank look on my face! Fortunately for me and those around me i still have my sense of humor...grrrr....The fish, well, the fish is a lost case, it never started lightly but the iris i had started it gently, yes, in a sort of minimalist way...but something took over me and i went at this poor flower with a vengeance......
The creature from page 6 keeps appearing and so i keep having to make up a new image: it becomes a strange fin for the fish and then an even stranger moth-type winged creature.

lol - maximalism! yes, i am firmly in the maximalist camp myself most days. i was just thinking about his last night. i do believe it is the color that leads me on. i just *want* to put that color on the page...

you don't like the fish?! i adore the fish! and also the iris is *gorgeous* to my eyes. surely maximalism was called for on these pages. ; )
