My life is about family and creativity. I love to do many different things and I change my focus often. But family and creativity are always part of each day in starrgirl's world.

carousel
I came across a small carnival at the mall Friday evening and couldn't resist this festive carousel. And I was able to keep the sketch a bit loose, which I like. I always seem to work it a bit too much, but I like the free-ness in this one.
I love everything carnival and you have captured this perfectly. I particularly love the shadow underneath. It has the carousel 'hovering' in just the right way. I think it is that hovering that is all important to the 'magic' of the carnival. It was quite a mystery when we were young, wasn't it.
OMG, I am older than I ever thought I'd be!! I wasn't going to trust anyone over 30- remember those days??? - and here I am, decades past that!! Fortunately, life goes on and grows even more rich with time. Make the most of every day for each one is a gift no matter how you spend it.
