Inspired by Illustration Friday theme "Communication"
In recent weeks, I'm making "public," for the first time, my abstract drawings; I have been amazed and happily surprised at the response to them. What I find most interesting is what each viewer "sees" in them. I get a lot of comments about how one can stare at them for a long time -- one viewer even used the word "hypnotized" -- and see one thing, then see another, and another, and another. Hence my submission to this week's Illustration Friday theme of Communication.
