IF ... Dusty

©2011 Mardi Speth All Rights Reserved • Watercolor and Ink

A light sugar-coating would simply not do. This job required the EXTRA STRENGTH rose tint, used liberally. Many incantations and applications of fairy dust later, there was still no Rabbit. When the dust finally settled, the sweeping began. In the final tally, the only thing conjured was one big dust bunny.

  1. well... nice sweeping visual movement leading right to the mysterious 'bunny of dust' in the shadows!
    I like the ears, the expression, the wings, tutu and Ugg slippers.

    hmmm.... dust bunny seems a bit enigmatic and worrisome ~must be the unknown...

  9. Mardi,
    It's early — I'm on the East Coast and the dog's got intestinal stuff — but logged on and found you at the top of IF. Not only do I adore your work, but your humor is priceless! I just put a lot of clicks on your blog, had to see 'em all. Wonderful work on all levels.
