I’m mesmerized by the innocence you capture with your art. I saved one of your drawings of a girl and her dog you did a couple of years ago and I’ll save this one, too, if it’s alright with you.

By all means, save anything you like that I’ve posted!

I don’t know why, but I seem drawn to drawing (lol) children doing “kid things” . Maybe some psychologist would say I miss being a child and yearn for the days of being carefree and not worrying about the world!
I am so pleased you took the time to comment!

For the time back that I was in such a hurry to leave behind! For me, it’s the innocence the children have before life comes along with its many lessons. Thanks for letting me share your art because I share them with my friends..especially those with grandkids 🙏
