Okie Roughneck

First, I want to thank everyone for their encouragement! This week I have once again, "stepped out of the box" and tried something new. I love the artwork of Marsha at Tumble Fish Studio. Her colors are vivid and I love how she takes different elements to create a piece of art. So, this week, I've tried my hand at her style, but of course, toning down the colors.

I hope you enjoy!

    Andrea, I'm a HUGe "Marsha" Junkie, and your piece is a wonderful tribute to her distinctive style. Fabulous! Using a more subdued palette has really give this piece a lovely "look"! Beautiful! Hugs, Terri

    Well, of all days to visit, I had no idea what sweet words I'd find! Oh my goodness. I am blushing. I've meant to have you in my links forever and as I went through comments tonight I decided that needed to finally get done and here I ended up. I am so far behind on blog visits and hope to get caught up over the next few days.

    You are such a wonderful artist and do so many things with your work I wish I knew how to do. You have such exquisite delicate but important layers in your work and I am so "bold and slapped on there" in mine. I'd like to have a little of you rub off on me. I'm in love with this piece, by the way. Gorgeous work.

    Yes - I agree with Terri, Marsha and Ophelia in all of their comments and I too especially love how you've played with the colors to make it an Andrea! Beautiful.
