is Jell-o molds which so vintage kitch and just my style. Had fun researching and looking through
a 1950's cookbook I found. I started sketching very realistically with shading but then started to
simplify the lines. These cute yet mischievous icons emerged. Dare to eat one of them!
Today I finished this illustration Hold on to Love. It came out dreamy,
just what I intended. Working with watercolor and pencils I painted and drew the first layer. I wanted the feel of the playground piece I did a while
ago (see Can I Play? below) and I felt the sky needed something. Using a white eraser I cut
the flag stamps and inked the pennant flags. The white pastel in the playground
piece added a mystical feeling so I added that too. The final touch was a bit of
glitz, the flower sequins.
