It is more important to know where you are going than to get there quickly.” – Mabel Newcomber I love this quote and the message it sends. It’s true. We need vision and clarity to know where we are going before putting the foot outside in the big world. I wanted to keep this page simple, with no drawings, just words. The face on the left is one I did a while ago. Using neocolors 2, I created a random background on the other …

Drawing with colored pencils is just so much fun! I was inspired by a photo found on Pinterest for this lotus, and again I’ve used Prismaclor pencils to complete this drawing.
