Beach Chair
CHAIR
The big leather chair by the standing lamp is great for reading; the designer chair in the living room is nice to look at; the old rattan chair is the place to curl up and watch TV; but my favorite chair’s the one I’m in when I’m down in the Keys sitting by the side of the road drinking Mojitos and selling mangoes. Now that’s poetry. Oh, and here’s a drawing…because "Illustration Friday" wants to see me illustrate "chair."

Glamour
GLAMOUR
When I was a little girl I was fascinated by a perfume bottle on my mother’s dresser. It was dark glass twisted into a candle shape and its stopper was an amber flame. That was my introduction to the fabulous Elsa Schiaparelli. I later came to know that “shocking pink” which was her signature. I have always associated Schiaparelli pink with glamour and though I am by nature conservative in my dress and habits, I keep my admiration for the surreal style and taste I wish I had the nerve and verve to wear.
And so, in answer to this week’s I.F. challenge –GLAMOUR—here is that icon of glamour, the high heel, in “shocking pink.”

Blue
Not Quite Blue
This is part of a series on "body parts." It isn't blue yet. I'm not sure how I'm going to do that. But it's almost blue.

Cold
This week's challenge from Illo Friday: COLD
I found some fur in a web search and 'pasted' it on her but she still looks cold to me.

Fresh
This week's topic at Illo Friday is "FRESH." All I could think of was vegetables and they were too hard to draw. So I was about to give up when this image popped into my head and it seemed kind of ''fresh'' to me. Voila.

Escape
I thought about desert islands, and Alcatraz, and hatches, but, hey, here I am in the here and now. As are you.
Here is this week's entry to Illustration Friday.
