I am working out some grief by creating this for my daughter's friend Nikki. Nikki died on Thursday. They met in kindergarten. Nikki was an incredibly creative soul; played piano and clarinet, funny as all get out, had an art degree from UWM and did pottery and jewelry mostly. I have two pieces of hers; she loved to do art swaps. It is beyond sad that her life ended at 39.
This is also for today's CAS...debatable that this is CAS enough, although it was simple. There is plenty of white. I used water to move the Brushos around on the tissue, which has sparkly flecks.
Believe it or not, this is also for Melody's DTGD21 challenge...pecking away at these, I will not be deterred. Then, I thought, why not?? ABC15W is watercolor. And, last but not least, Friday's MIX, a collaboration between Polly and Susan...use something from a magazine, junk mail, etc. in your project. I messed around with many ideas, finally decided to KISS and use some old flute music paper.

So very sorry for the loss suffered by all who knew this remarkable young woman. You card is stunning in its beauty, Jean. I hope that creating it lifted your heart as it allowed you to celebrate Nikki's amazing life.

This is stunning, Jean. Gorgeous colors and texture. I'm so sorry for the funerals you have been having to attend so close together. Such a beautiful piece of art.
