Mary's Little Lamb
I've recently been visiting some old passions and creating what I call my "Doodle Babies". I am a former elementary school teacher and have always loved children's books. At one time I had serious thoughts of writing and illustrating a children's book. Most of my "babies" have been created while sitting in front of the TV with a fine line Sharpie in hand. The ideas for each character usually comes about as a result of some family photo or memory that I have of children in our family. There is endless possibilities and while I am creating one baby, another idea pops into my mind. I don't have a specific plan for these little gems at the moment, but as I sat here drawing, I have thought about the importance that art and education have played in my life. There is a connection there.
