Silly poems

Gosh, I love my sister. She's the best.

From Mel, to Asha:

If you were a lima bean
I'd love you just the same
If I were a crab
I'd never poo again
If hanu was a piece of cake
she'd try to eat herself
If Aketa was a rainy day
I'd buy her a present
If Erik was a cup of tea
I'd give him a hug
But if a lima bean dressed up in an Asha disguse....
I'd tell him he doesn't have your sparkel

From Asha to me:

if you were a snowman i wouldn't let you melt
if hanu a light bulbi'm sure that she would glow
so someone would feed her a cup of chamomile
and if i was a camera i'd take a picture of you both

Collaboration with Asha

Asha has such a wonderful drawing style. When I was her age, I was lucky if you could tell what I was trying to draw, but no matter what it is, it lacked flare, interest. But her stuff rocks.

Lately I feel like I'm relearning to draw. I'm doing away with a few conventions I was taught in early art classes, and it's much more fun without them.

Two of these are mine, two are Asha's. I love them together. You might have to look at them a little bigger, they're drawn with .18mm & .3mm pens




Here are a few more of her drawings. Aren't they lovely? I asked her to make me the fanciest spoon she could. She threw in the smallest spoon she could draw next to it.... this card is 2"X1.5"



Next she drew a cupcake. This was a dilema for her. She said cupcakes are important, and require prominence. but they're also cute, and that requires smallness. She settled on a large cupcake decorated with very tiny cupcakes.



Bees attack tiny town. The town is my fave, you should look at it larger.



And a dinosaur card made for yours truly. His name is bing-bong, his skin markings are made of hearts.
