Hi Everyone!
Do you have old artwork of yours around your house? Stuff that you created that's really not worthy of selling...but too nice to throw away? Maybe they tell a little story that you are reminded of when you find them again?
I was looking thru my dusty portfolio just now....and ran across this....
I drew this in Prismacolor Pencil and ink back in 2005.... I called it "Contemplation".
I had not really worked solely in colored pencils before this drawing....and haven't done any after, either...haha!
This was also the year I had this brilliant plan to paint 12 new pieces and make a calendar of my art for Christmas gifts...
Unfortunately, this idea is still on my to do list...lol! But, I did manage to paint this with the idea of it being April's image....

...and then, there's this piece...done 16 years ago! (I was 16 years old at the time)...Wow, that seems like such a long time ago....and yet, I can still remember sitting at the kitchen table after everyone else was asleep with my art supplies scattered around me, drawing this....
Not much has changed :)
It was a gift for my grandparents one year for Christmas....my grandpa loved birds...
I look at this piece and it reminds me, not only of them, but of the young girl I was once...the girl who wanted nothing more than to be an artist when she grew up!
I'm still working on both :D

Hope you all have the things you love scattered about you today!!!
