Beschreibung

This book is a dive under the skin of an artist, a dreamer and an enthusiast in life through drawing. Diaries filled with drawings have always been a constant companion of mine. The drawings are a visual account of recollection and awareness; a concrete record of one journey in an attempt of leading a good life and being a better, more appreciative version of of me as a fully expressed self - an expression of seeing and feeling the delight in small things; never loosing the wonder of experiencing the world for the first time and seeing the brilliance in a dew drop.

Leseprobe

With gratitude to my husband and my parents for their infinite support and love.

About the Author

Preface

I’ve been drawing as long as I’ve been able to hold a pen in my hand and the memory based drawings of my daily life in all its forms span over two decades. This book is a dive under the skin of an artist, a dreamer and an enthusiast in life through drawing.

Diaries filled with drawings have always been a constant companion of mine. More recently I have come to think of these drawings as a commentary on the overflow of photographs in social media as well. This book is a logbook of sense of connection to physical and emotional effects and reactions to the world around me.

The drawings are a visual account of recollection and awareness; a concrete record of one journey in an attempt of leading a good life and being a better, more appreciative version of me as a fully expressed self - an expression of seeing and feeling the delight in small things; never loosing the wonder of experiencing the world for the first time and seeing the brilliance in a dew drop.
