Last night I sketched this sad girl in my sketchbook. I guess it was reflecting my inner feelings. I had just argued with my ex-husband who constantly makes me feel less than I am. He is and always was very harsh with his words and last night he just reminded me of how bad I always used to feel when I was around him. This is one of my first mixed media pieces and I have to tell you it is a wonderful process. I am really enjoying it and can't wait to get to the oil painting part of it tomorrow after the coat of gesso dries! Please remember when you speak to others how your words affect them. Words are very strong and one of the most dangerous weapons in our arsenal. Use them with care.

Children's author and illustrator takes challenge to sketch daily in 2009. Each sketch will be posted nightly. Some will be finished, some will not. I may continue to upload the same sketch in different phases until it is finished. As long as I sketch daily, and prove it by posting, then I've met my challenge. Subscribe to my blog and leave me comments to help me with my challenge. It always helps when my readers/viewers get involved. Thanks so much and wish me luck!!!
