Student Sketchbook: Grandma

5/9/2014

In honor and remembrance of upcoming Mother's Day, I am posting a series of drawings from my sketchbook.

This is a drawing done in 1989. I had no eraser at the time, otherwise I would have cleaned it up a bit more. It is special to me because it is of my Grandmother Dorothy Sedlecky. It was done at her apartment. It has a violet plant in the background, and I always think of her when I see them.

Grandma prayed everyday for her family and others, and I'm sure she is praying as fervently, while in Heaven. I love and miss you Grandma. It is nice to remember the time we've spent together.

Hi. I'm Ann.

Welcome to
My Drawing Board Blog.

This is where I post my current thoughts and ideas about the topics that resonate with me, and how I work them out as illustrations. This is my work in progress.

As an artist, I love to see the beauty in the world around me. I enjoy the play of color, patterns, and light. It is a challenge for me to try to capture the thoughts and images that inspire me.

Sometimes, I like to quickly scratch ideas on paper. Other times, I like to take my time and work through images with color.

Each day brings a new perspective. This blog is my opportunity to share my thoughts and drawing process with you.

Thank you for visiting.

Getting Creative About Functioning with LESS.

Creativity takes on many forms. Currently, I am on a journey to live with LESS and I am trying to Make <LESS> Work for me and my family.

Hopefully my goal will inspire my whole household to make conscious decisions about our home environment and what we REALLY need to own.

My personal goal is to eliminate clutter, and make our surroundings creatively functional and beautiful.

I am grateful to be able to share my thoughts, and illustrations with you.

We'll see where this journey takes me!
