EDM #148 Soothing

The challenge is Soothing"humm, as I have been sick for almost 2 weeks I have sought out all things soothing so I am an expert.
I knew this subject matter would be difficult but for me it proved to be impossible - I gave it two attempts (coffee cup bubbles and bath bubbles in case you can't tell ;-D - both quite soothing right now.

Hot bath with bubbles and a steaming cup of tea.....sounds good to me and I'm not even sick. Sorry you have under the weather but great that you still are able to sketch. Very soothing work.

the bubbles came out very well! I hope you're much better now and next time I wish the bubbles will be of champagne celebrating. Best wishes. martín.

I love your drawings! Hope you are feeling better - I must have your cold now. I can definitely relate to your images here!

I love these soothing drawings so full of warmth and feeling. It sounds like you've had a tough time with your cold but your paintings are wonderful.

Beautiful watercolor work. I like how you integrated words and pictures in the bubble path page. Also, thank you for your kind welcome to EDM.

These are great for the challenge. The bubbles across the page work perfectly for me. I love the tones and textures in your "looks like winter" sketch too!

:-( Sorry you're still sick -- but don't you just love a cup of hot coffee (or tea) while taking a hot bubble bath? VERY soothing, indeed! These are really well done!

Your sketchbook pages are wonderful! I really like your use of colour and the coffee bubbles are fabulous!
I hope you feel better soon.

These both look wonderful, in fact I'd love to see your journals in the flesh, they are so vibrant!

Sandy, thanks for you comment but I didn't quite understand the second bit!
