This is sort of continuation of the Musical Drawings post and. I’m a huge Muse fan, never get tired of their music.

Confession. I’m an envious person. I envy many people, mostly for their talents and skills rather than material possessions. My envy is light and colorless. Good example – I tend to admire other artists’ ease in use of colors. I am extremely conservative when it comes to my own palette – I dress in blacks, [...]

Two lovely ladies are having tea in a brightly colored room. I think they might be sisters. Their teapot hats are enjoying the moment as well. All is good in this pink and green universe
