Illustration Friday - Obsession

**  Update  **

Because I truly am obsessive, I worked on the alphabet some more. I just wasn't satisfied with it. It wasn't there yet.
And now I think it is.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

This week's Illustration Friday prompt is ~



You know I had to draw the whole alphabet after I did that other "PAULA DREW THIS" piece the other day.


I did these more "illustrative" than the other ones, which were more realistic. More of an idealized version, rather than individual cracker portraits.

I've had a lot of obsessions in my day. Shoes (more specifically, black boots), white pitchers (which I still have), a boy or two here and there, finding the perfect club sandwich (Westlake Joe's does a pretty good one), cheap Chinese from the hole-in-the-wall places on Clement, hoity toity real estate, and now, its seems, a lot of square things. 
I wonder what's next?

You may feel obsessive, but I think it's delightful. Such fun obsessions!

Fun idea! Shoes are definitely mine, pocketbooks too. And art supplies most of all!

So much fun! How smart you were to do the whole alphabet...now you have your own font! These are gorgeous.
