It's in there somewhere


Somewhere buried deep within,

beneath the piles of laundry

and the 3:30 am wake-up call

and the mounds of dishes that won't stay caught up

and the kids

and the bills

and the

and the

...

is a passion I once used to enjoy.

Drawing.

The picture above was done three years ago, and prior to that I hadn't sketched in several years.

I haven't picked up my charcoal or pencils since.

A reader commented on my last post that I may have put something on hold for the kids,

and now that they are in school I should rediscover it...

I'm thinking that's a good idea.

You are very talented. I agree with the "other reader." Life sometimes gets so hectic that we forget to take care of ourselves.

We're going to talk about your art Kim and EVERYTHING else. Beautiful drawing, much like the inside of you.
