Illustration Friday "Wind"


"wind" 5" by 8" mixedmedia (click to enlarge the photo)

Wind is what we are experiencing this weekend in New England. Here is my little mixed media piece for "Wind" for IF. Get blown away at IF with more fabulous artwork!

The word for the day is ... upsweep ... as in a hairdo, a hair-don't, and a raising of something in one swift motion.

Ooooooo...I can certainly feel the wind in this illustration, Susan. It's mighty windy today in NJ. The clouds look like huge, grey ships sailing across the sky.
