A quick drawing of a few lotus flowers at  the China Pavilion at Epcot. The petals of the lotus flower symbolize the expansion of the soul. I like that. Maybe its the way the lotus flower stands so beautifully tall and sensitive in the water. I don’t really know what the attraction is for me, […]

While at the Japanese Pavilion at Epcot I was looking into the coy pond and noticed this one little plant growing out of a huge rock in the pond. It was so sweet standing there all by itself. Took a few minutes to draw it. Â Japan at Epcot is one of my favorite pavilions. It […]

View post →As you have probably figured out already last Sunday several of us in the Studio traveled with the Dalvero members to draw the relaunching of the Charles W. Morgan, in Mystic, CT. It has been fantastic to be a small part its history (visit www.dalveromystic.com for more details). As the various speakers made their turn […]

View post →A drawing/watercolor I made for a book I wanted to illustrate, Anansi Stories. The Anansi myth is from Africa. Basically Anansi is a trouble maker. He is mainly represented as a spider, but I thought it might be fun to make him human. In this picture/drawing Anansi is collecting up all the common sense in […]

View post →The drawing above of a field was made in Arles, France. Where Van Gogh lived and worked. I can see why he drew so many of these fields…marks and marks and marks, as far as the eye can see. And so beautiful. What a pleasure to see what he saw. – posted by Veronica
