A note about form & color

It's worthy to note here, if only to myself. After participating in Gioia Fonda's Pink Week art shows (see below) in September, 2006, I liked the idea of limiting my color palate. The layers of colors I'd been drawing were very wild and chaotic, but the forms were getting lost. After Pink Week, I took out the black ink pens, and the forms just exploded. Sometime in the future, the form and color may meet again. What do you think?

The previous drawings posted here have a special place in my heart, but they are most AMAZING because of all the titles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep them coming!
