The power of drawing

I came upon this drawing scrolling through my blog, and I love it. 
I love drawing partially because you can draw anywhere. 
I've drawn in restaurants, on trains, planes, and in my
home whenever the mood hits, or when what I'm looking at is
compelling.

This is a drawing of my son, and sixteen years later it
tugs at my heartstrings. How lovely it is to have children
hanging about in the kitchen. Plus I love the detail.

Have a loving what you do day.
