“Song Burst” by Gayle Wheatley. (Watercolor on Paper)

“Cactus Cake”
Watercolor on Paper by Gayle Wheatley
This funky little cake was inspired by a real-life mini cake I ate at Mercado de San Miguel in Madrid. No, it didn’t have a cactus with eyes on it, a river, a mushroom or a road on it. But it was pink and it did have both red and green gumdrops on top. The rest I invented, and thus you have the “Cactus Cake”!
“España”

Gayle Wheatley, Watercolor on Paper
“Now I have
been slightly shy
and I can smell a pinch of hope
to almost have allowed once fingers
to stroke
the fingers I was given to touch with
but careful, careful
there lies my passion, hidden
there lies my love
I’ll hide it under a blanket
lull it to sleepI’ll keep it in a hidden place
Keep it in a hidden place…”
—Björk
