    Like your pencil drawings, like the digital art transports,
    like your haiku/senryu. I woke up yesterday, my hand palms
    were wrinkled and red-calluses were gone, two fingers had
    fairly deep cuts. Dunno, do I sleep walk? They seemed to
    be burned, could be I was allergic to some prescription
    shampoo, but I've used it now for three weeks and nothing
    like this.
    Until.

    Wow, I like the depth of color you got with the colored pencils and the shading of her face. She’s a cutie. She’s perfect gracing the photo of flowers.

    i can relate to the nose to rose a lot. ❤️

    No pruning, fewer blossoms! (But you know that, and that's why you have those shears.)

    i really like the haiku about the yellow ixoras. they must be so pretty that you stopped work to admire them. most of the ixoras over here are red, and in clusters they are truly pretty.
    Colour pencils are fun to work with. :)

    I enjoyed your drawings and that haiku at the end. The consequences of putting a nose to a rose!

    I start with your music then go through your post ... it always puts me is an up mood. Your drawing and your several digital versions are sweet and of course your haiku's are always right on ...
