IF- Layer II

This is my second entry for this week's topic. I just had to post it too because of the many layers a rose blossom consists of and also because of the almost endless layers in this drawing it took to create the desired effect of real petals and their velvety surface. It is also part of my Valentine's Day Postcard.

IF - layer





Reading this weeks topic 'layer' I immediately remembered a stay at the YMCA in Chicago early in the 90s. The basin we had in our room had a dripping faucet. It must have been dripping already for years because the porcelain of the basin was peeling off in layers. It was incredible. I never new that porcelain even could peel like that.

IF - sweater

“Sweater, n.: garment worn by child when its mother is feeling chilly.”  Ambrose Bierce

No, you haven't got the wrong link: this is not chicken (from a few weeks ago) but sweater.

Because I am currently preparing an Easter Special for my homepage which - naturally - circles around eggs, I immediately thought of a hen breeding eggs. But unfortunately she doesn't feel very confident of her abilities, so to be on the safe side, she decides to dress her eggs in sweaters. Poor little ones: now they really must be sweating...

After a short break, here comes the third part of my Valentine's Postcard Project.

This part stands for the not so nice periods in every relationship: the fights, hurts and tears. On the card you shall have the chance to say that in spite of all these hardships you still love your partner.
