Here

Here is a wonderful, mysterious, feminine drawing about sharing the magic that some lucky folks occasionally discover in the night sky. This piece has deep, vibrant layers of color; beautiful undulating lines, and a hopeful feeling of possibility. It has long been one of my personal favorites and I have never tired of this piece. Something about the woman just grabs me. That she is just a wee bit hesitant. Like she knows that sharing this with you is the right thing to do but she is not 100% certain that you will understand. I love that.

I am hopeful that Here will bring you good dreams and that you might make a wish or two on these special stars.

How Here was created.... I rarely have time to create these detailed colored pencil pieces any longer. They are VERY labor intensive. To get colors that deep, I have to layer pencil for many many hours. Often for days. My hands cramp so bad I wake up aching. It is worth it when I see the results, though. The level of detail that I can capture with pencils is unparalleled. No other media can do what pencils can. This is a luminous, emotional drawing and I really hope that it finds a home with someone who shares my belief that anything is possible if only you can imagine it. We have to keep dreaming. Keep wishing! Keep helping each other to believe.

(How Here might look framed in a standard-sized 11" x 14" frame.)

Here was created on an acid-free mat board. You will want to protect your investment by framing this piece. You can save a bit on framing if you choose a ready-made frame at your favorite home store and bring the art and frame together to a custom-framer who can mat the art to fit the frame. But if you go this route, I highly recommend that you replace the plain glass with what framers call "museum glass". That will screen out harmful UV rays. These colored pencil pieces are EXTREMELY light-sensitive and will quickly fade if exposed to direct light.

This drawing is being offered unframed.
