Do you see what I see?
Coloured Pencil and Ink on Textured Glass Ivory Paper 120gsm 60cm x 40cm
I worked day and night on this one, all weird hours of the night, I was obsessed with this artwork, my head was just busying with ideas and images and I needed to do this for my own sanity. Art is my healer.

Wonderful work! I can relate when it comes to the Obsession. Then again, if I’m not obsessed, I don’t think my work turns out so great so maybe that’s the Key! Love this! Congratulations on the Features!
MelDavies replied about 3 hours ago
Thanks MsTique, I think you are right, Obsessive Creative Dissorder is the key to great art. Many thanks Mel
