Colorful, abstract painting with vibrant circular patterns on a green background with black dots, created in a cozy little studio.
 The background is painted with watercolor paints.  I cut out circles from magazines and from photocopies of my own artwork.  Then I glued them to the paper and doodled around them and on top of them with Prismacolor Markers and Paint Markers.  The background is map-like with the blue and green (water and land).  I was reading a book called “You are Here:  Personal Geographies and Other Maps of the Imagination” You Are Here: Personal Geographies and Other Maps of the Imagination  which intrigued me.
