Nate in the Car...a sketch |
of Christmas 2011! They came. We ate. We played. We enjoyed. We hiked. We listened. They went. All the people that I love in this world! It is always so bittersweet! The tree has been disassembled and the cookie tin emptied. I keep in touch with my pencils during this time of altered reality by using small moments for small, intimate and, hopefully, soft drawings of my loved ones that will sustain me while the merriment ends. I never ask anyone to pose, so often the drawings remain imperfect and unfinished. Sometimes that is definitely for the best. Stopping too soon is always preferable in my book...sketchbook, that is. Love.
