I am here

On January 8 I wrote words in my journal for an assignment ~ "I am here". Today I choose to share the words with you.









Another assignment in early days was for a self portrait. This was done with C'aran D'ache Crayons on a rough piece of card stock which I believe actually somehow came to have wonder-under on it. That is what the texture is about. Though the assignment was for dry mediums only, I quickly chose to add some water as the crayons on the rough texture looked, well, kind of terrible. Early stages with self portraits. Tricky to change the mistakes on the textured paper. I personally find the portrait to be much easier to view if I cover the face from about the nose down. Big grin. Hoping you find it humourous too.
