I dream of gems and minerals...

I  was recently reading another illustrator's blog. This blog, actually: This is the link.

I realized that I would like to share some unpolished doodles of mine.

Why not?! These illustrations were responses to a conversation I had with a friend. He was sharing stories about watching geysers in Northern California. Mind you, he anthropomorphized the geysers and the earth... the earth was belching and vomiting. I shared that I had recently had a dream about the earth creating huge cut, shiny gemstones in its depths.
