Scribble Picnic: Mushy


within the inner sanctum of his being
endless possibilities 

he chooses
a love affair with life

Thank you Michael

(this might not seem very mushy
yet a love affair with love and life
is entirely intimate to me)

Happy Valentine's Day to you!

  4. A love affair with life is definitely intimate... And, perfect as the subject for a "mushy" piece.

  5. To have a love affair with life, is the best kind of mushy. Your drawing is so lovely, and the softness of colors is beautiful.

  7. For whatever reason, this reminds me of a very trendy speed skater! Too much Olympics! I love the idea of a love affair with life!

  10. Being an elf I see him in the woods having a love affair with the beautiful surroundings his is fortunate to live in! Those eyes are amazing and, as always Tammie, your painting speaks to me deeply. Wonderful!

  11. I can easily stretch the meaning of Mushy to this intimate and very lovely portrait of a love affair. A love affair with life is a wonderful idea ... very hard to carry out and quite a challenge, but worth the effort. There is much beauty in your thought processes, Tammie ...
