This week, the prompt for Scribble Picnic is BOTTLE.
You would think that having two weeks to get this prompt done, I would have been on the ball but, oh no — true to form, I left it until the last minute even though it crossed my mind lots. Since seeing the prompt, I couldn't get the song 'Message in a Bottle' out of my head so that's what I went with.
I laid the basic structure in first with Prismacolor coloured pencils
And here is the end result although I may fiddle with it a little more with it yet. I used coloured ballpoint pens and black ink for emphasis.

See you for the picnic in two weeks for the prompt - JOLT or DOUBLE.
I will leave you with the song — Message in a Bottle by The Police.

DeleteYour bottle is exquisite, Serena ... one would love to find such a bottle floating in the water. We were on the same page, though I didn't get my idea from the song. Beautifully done ...

ReplyDeleteSerena,
ReplyDeleteI seem to have missed some people from the bottle challenge, so luckily just saw that and am going back to visit anyone like you who I didn't catch the first go around. Sorry about that!
This is lovely. Perfection. What more can I say? Thakn you so much for it. A lovely addition and idea for the challenge too.
Funny, when I first heard The Police I thought they were rubbish and one hit wonders...but was I wrong! Now I actually like the song. Same goes with Duran Duran.
