Art in the Making: Entering the Void with the Eyes Open 2

Evening of Hope

This drawing was done at three locations. It began in the home of a friend one evening; I drew her portrait as she sat in her recliner. There was a table to the side with a little angel candle holder, a pitcher and a bowl. The next day I drew the lilac tree in our yard with puffs of snow upon the branches; the chickadee graced me with a visit. The third day I drew the mountains as I sat in Ben and Anda’s house looking out through a frosty window as the cloudy day dimmed into night. The moon rose in my memory of other evenings when I had watched it playfully pop up from behind the Chugach Mountains.
