You say the word
you know I will find you
Or if you need some time
I don't mind
I don't hold on
to the tail of your kite
I'm not like the girls that you've known
But I believe I'm worth coming home to
Kiss away night
This girl only sleeps with Butterflies
with Butterflies
so go on and fly then, boy
(My Sister, Tori Amos, "Sleep with Butterflies", The Beekeeper, 2005. Full lyrics)
Sort of a birthday (March 14) self portrait :) With special thanks to Marcie for feeding me the chocolate chip cookies and the wine - I hope you know that you saved my day ;)
For Inspire Me Thursday - "Inkblots". Not sure that I followed the directions, but hey! artistic license... ;)

Very pretty!
i'm just getting into Ms. Amos' catalog myself. nobody needs a silly license for art. besides, outlaws are usually more interesting. we could set up a really neat prison painting class! if they take me alive, that is.
Really like what you did! Love the song too :)
Bonniebluedenim: Thank you! I like it myself, and I had so much fun painting it.
Kris: Oh, welcome to Tori Land! She is wonderful, my all time favourite singer and Sister. LOL about the prison painting class.
Deb: Thank you! The song is so beautiful.
Mycket läcker!!! Kramar...
Gisan: Tack! Den här är jag riktigt nöjd med, faktiskt ;)
interpretation is always personal and our own -- no matter what the prompt -- I love what you did with this -- it is inkblots and you've taken it a step further. Beautiful!
very cool, love the colors and the spontaneity of it. thanks for sharing with us at Inspire Me Thursday!
amazing color choices... a very avant garde feel here....
Love all of it and the colors are fabulous !!
Happy belated Birthday! Beautiful butterfly! Smiles, Anke ;0

Hi Carra! I did mention this in another comment, but i wanted to come back and tell you how stunning it is. the colors and shapes look like stained glass butterflies... it's really ethereally beautiful!
Carla: Thank you! I had so much working on this, and I - gasp! - quite like it myself. :)
Oh hey! That's gorgeous... kept looking at it till I found the lady!! Thanks for stopping by my blog!!
Thank you, Rosie! And you're welcome :)
the inkblots add such great contrast.
Nicole: Thanks :)
Beautiful, fanciful and creative!!
Artbyjune: Thank you!
I agree, great song. . . Miss Amos rawks! I have been a fan for years and years.
About your work, I love the colors you did a great job. I'll be joining you in prison painting class as I have broke the cardinal rule of no drinking and painting!
Cindy: Thanks! I've been a fan of Tori's for ages as well. She is my Sister.
I actually look forward to prison, seeing how many nice people who will join me there :)
