It's Sunshine! In mushroom form. This was a blast to draw as it's very colorful and seems so bright and cheery. The little blue bird sits atop to view the world below. I love that either the mushroom is huge or the bird is quite tiny, but you can decide that on your own.
The way I drew this was so that the mind and yes process the color by blending the colors together. I use crosshatching to achieve that as I like to leave each color separate.

About the artist:

Well, I'm Jessica Stepp. I'm a philosopher by degree, but artist and poet by heart. I'm passionate about nature, which influences my art greatly, even if it is mostly surreal and fantasy.
I never know what to think or write about my art. It is merely my art, my imagination of my mind and conscious burned/drawn/inked upon the paper, wood. It is relevant to me because it is from me. My art is my being, and when I create my art, I feel fully whole.
I've worked in many mediums in art, yet it is in burning,ink and charcoal that I find I cannot leave. It is just fascinating to watch an image materialize upon paper or wood as you apply heat. There is also the finite feeling that you cannot fix what is done. What is burned is now forever. It makes the work fragile as the paper is now weaker. Working in charcoal and ink is careful work, for in ink you cannot make a mistake and charcoal is often delicate and quick to ruin. I guess it is these qualities I love, they require love and gentleness.
