I Am The Diva - Challenge 188: National Coming Out Day

The Diva's Challenge is to recognize National Coming Out Day...she received this nice note from a young man:

 "I think it would be a good way to further inspire tanglers and raise awareness if you considered a challenge to somehow put some aspect of LGBT in a tile. Perhaps using the colors of the rainbow, or using tangles that start with L, G, B, and T, or using those letters as a string? "

So - this is my answer to the challenge - lots of color representing the rainbow and an abstract-type of rainbow over the color.  I used Arches cold-pressed watercolor paper 8" x 2" and used transparent watercolors and Micron-pigma black pens.

Although I am traveling right now, I want to try one too.
I threw a small set of travel Watercolors and a water pen in my bag...I am inspired by your lovely ZIA.

A lovely zia this is; lovely soft colors and I think the tears in it tell a lot.
