Drawing in Books ... of poetry

I have been given permission to post photos of what I drew in L.L. Barkat's book InsideOut.

Yay!... Okay, intro. over....

Poetry lends itself to this sort of art, I think. A mood, rather than an image ... Although, I did actually illustrate one this evening, to some extent, since the imagery called to me.

I haven't taken a photo of that particular drawing yet. Nor of the mosquito poem, which made me laugh. Should I post more of them? (There will be many more. I shan't post them all.)

  5. Wow! -- indeed.

    All I do is underline words, high light phrases, and (shhh) dog-ear pages...

    Blessings.

  7. Thank you! You all have made me "feel like an artist" which is sometimes hard to do. But art needs to be shared in order to become real, and that is what you've done. *hugs for everyone*
