annie - iris

when the florida flowers came out, i tried to think of something to do with each stamp. i was being pretty literal so i'm not impressed with the ideas, but they are fine for quick happy mail. i used zig markers and did the shading with a regular lead pencil. i took drawing 101, but didn't really spend any time learning how to do botanical illustration. the leaves don't go with the flowers....but, it's mail art....ephemeral....good enuf....
