Songs get stuck in my head. So for the whole time while I was drawing this all that kept going through my mind was “Blowing Kisses In The Wind” by Paula Abdul. Really missing 90s music right now.
This is an oldie I’m reposting simply because it’s one of my favorites. It took me a month to do this on 14X17 drawing paper and at the time that I did it I was working second shift at a full time job. So after work I would come home, grab something to snack on and then be up ‘til 1-2am working on this. It’s a wonderful reminder of the importance of patience.

A deep sympathy and sorrow for the suffering of others accompanied by a desire to help alleviate that suffering.
This is one of a series of hand drawn Chinese characters that I’m doing on kraft brown pocket moleskine cahiers.

I wish micron 005pt. pens came in a more variety of colors than just the primaries, secondaries and rose, which is only slightly different than red. I’ve come across some interesting color combinations with what I have but it can be a bit of a challenge when you want a golden yellow hue and all you have is red and orange. This flower was suppose to be light green and pink.
