IMPERFECTION




This is a gal in our town who does the retail/restaurant chalk boards. Her imperfections are perfect!

GESTURE
My assignment to do a line drawing of Igor Stravinsky was challenging. Fortunately, he had a distinct way of gesturing while conducting and this made the project easier. The client was happy so I was too!

RENEWAL
I've used this image before but thought it would be appropriate to this week's word because a scent of lavender can bring renewal.
