Images vs Words, Instagram vs Twitter, a good book vs a good movie. One is not better than the other, both have the potential to express powerful thoughts and emotions, reveal what's in the heart, and share the human experience eloquently. Myself, I am drawn to the image. I would rather draw than write. I'd pick up a book of beautiful photographs over a book of poetry...not that I can't appreciate a well written poem or story!
But that's just me. What about you?
pencil, ink and watercolor.
Nadine is our kind host this week. Thank you for the invitation, Nadine! I need a kick in the pants sometimes.

here's kick-in-the-pants saying hi! you're too right, this rolling stones image could well be stones-related forever... for the longest time i didn't even take kind to it, either. why on earth a tongue? and then years later i finally got it its to do with jagger's mouth. well. slow, moi, sometimes... hee hee... thxs for playing, rachel. so lovely to hear from you. will reply soon-ish. n♥
Yep, that tongue is Mick's and will always be (well at least for me and now my grown kids too).
Poetry needs to be spoken out loud to reach me but images capture me in a second.
Nice to see Nadine's kick in the pants worked!

and to be honest
i didn't mind you being a bit late

Rachel, I'm with you. While I am an avid reader, images are my first love; I, too, would rather draw than write. A picture, sometimes, really is worth a thousand words.
hey, hey... we're here again...
we can't leave be, can we?
a new drawing theme sits ready for you, if you like.
