Feathers. Of DOOM!

When I was a child my aunt had peacocks. She saved a lot of the tail feathers and kept them in a large vase/urn thing. I don't know why, but they always seems sinister to me.

Sure, they're lovely and shiny. But that black center is like an eye. Watching. Waiting.

Waiting to be delicious.

Rainbow kick, now with flowers

Still on my rainbow colors kick! This time I decided to draw flowers.

I think most five year olds have better flowers.

But it was still delicious!

Rainbow kick

I've been on a rainbow kick lately. It's hard to have so many colors of marker and stick to only two or three!

This is a simple progression of the colors, but I like how cheery it turn out. The wobbly lines make it more whimsical I think.

Whimsically delicious!

Mardi Gras

Most of us have heard the tale of the contest between the sun and the wind to get a man to take off his coat. I was turning that over in my mind today while decorating this egg.

But it turned out more mardi gras colors than anything.

It was still delicious!

Patterned ribbons

I really had no idea for today. I just wanted to play with pattern and depth. I definitely played with pattern.

But not so much on the depth side. It's hard to create shading with markers.

But it was deeply delicious. (I know, I'm the only one that enjoys puns. Don't I get a pity laugh?)

Cracked serenity

This egg cracked when  was putting it in to boil. It's hard to draw on cracks, so I only drew a small scene on this third. It has been a stressful week, so I tried to draw a serene scene.

Of course, the ocean at sunset isn't really "serenity" to me. But it is colorful.

Colorfully delicious!
