                                            pencil - colored pencil - collage

I wanted something more in my original drawing. I thought of lines that I would draw but I wanted color too. So I decided to add the color but that was horrible by it- self . I decided to add the lines but thought it would be more interesting if they were made of a magazine picture.

So here are my lines, my color and my little white pumkins.

                                             Beautiful white pumpkins for DSFDF but I want to add something before I e-mail this one but I don't know yet what it is, so I'm going to chew on it a little.
