In recent years, finding creativity within myself has been a challenge. I let my insecurities and pain get in the way of the only outlets I had ever embraced.
Through this blog, I've been able to find a modicum of release. I do my best to write as often as I can and hope that the future holds less fear to express myself in that avenue.
Perhaps it is because I spent my whole life with the idea that I cannot draw, that I am so free with the idea of sharing my illustrations.
When you have no set standards to live up to, who cares?
I created this for my husband, who has often told me that he enjoys my colored pencil work.
Coming from him, that is a high compliment.
Having been reminded over and over that if I want to see something on paper, I may as well start trying to put it down, because the only way I will never see it- is if I never do it ... I did a charcoal and colored pencil piece of this young woman with no eyes. She was in my head- now she is on the paper.
Here's to hoping for more creative flow in all of our lives.
