Rough

It has been confirmed . . . I am going mad! I had it in my head that the theme at Illustration Friday this week was rough, so I did my illustration, put it up and then ... realised everyone else had illustrated 'crunchy' - the correct word. I'm just going for a lie down now . . .

The sea has been really rough lately and I love it like this

    Nice work anyway. You should submit 'rough' as a theme and you'll already have an illustration lined up and ready to go :)

    Well, it's beautiful nonetheless! So much energy in a balanced way. It's funny, I kept thinking the prompt was Crushed, but didn't so so far as to create a piece. We all benefited from your confusion :) Be well!

    The rough waves crashed against the cliff making crunchy noises! Hope that makes you fell better :) I love to swim in the sea and rough weather is always a dampener for me!

    SO COOL! I look out of our window and see the crazy whipped up action , white caps and turbulance on the bay- your illustration captures it perfectly!
