Turning the Corner

Early morning ice fog, April 2021

Greetings! As I write, I am filled with glimmers of hope that, at long last, we are turning the corner on the devastation of the last year. Johntimothy and I are grateful to now be fully vaccinated. I have been working from home for more than a year and will make my way back to the office to join my colleagues at the University. I’ve actually enjoyed working my 9-5 job from home, but going back to the workplace signifies that my life can begin to shift from fear to hope for the future. I am fully aware that the coronavirus is still quite prevalent and we certainly are not ready to declare the nightmare over, but we have forward momentum, as more of the country is vaccinated. I only hope the positive trend continues. My heart goes out to those who have suffered so terribly and lost loved ones. I’m not sure there is anyone who hasn’t been touched in some way by this frightening virus.

I also want to share with you that the daily drawing project has taken another twist! I am working on suites of drawings, which can be found in my Etsy shop under the section Daily Drawing Sets. Each suite contains a week’s worth of drawings — all seven are related and meant to work together as a grouping. Above, you can see how the drawing itself floats in the middle of the page, which measures anywhere from 9-11 inches, depending on the week and the stack of paper I’ve made for the week! Each suite of drawings is a consistent size. The set here is from the third week of April and, as you can see, I ventured into some color—shocking! But, aha, now that I’ve shown you that opening photo from an early morning at the beginning of that week featuring the warm glow of a lovely icy, pink fog….well, perhaps the color was no surprise! Below you’ll see the full week’s drawings — visit MissouriBendStudio on Etsy each week to see another suite of daily drawings.

Stay safe and well….and hope these little drawings bring some joy to your day!

Cheers!
