If you were walking along the shore and you found a message in a bottle, would you take it seriously?  And if that message was written by a desperate soul and it had specific instruction for you to follow in order to save that lost person, would you follow those instructions?  And what if it was you that wrote the message?  Do you have the courage to follow your soul's instructions?

I am hoping this very special little drawing will be the answer to your plea.  When you decide what is important to you, when you ask for what you need, help will find you.

The words just above this drawing read:  What is important to you?

How Message was created.....   First, I used artists markers filled with colored India ink to rough this piece out.  Then I used oil pastels to layer luscious colors atop that underpainting.  And finally I added the words with a tiny pen that has a nib measuring just .2 millimeters.  (The message in the bottle was drawn with that tiny pen, too.)

Message was drawn on acid-free white mat board.  You will want to frame this little treasure to protect your investment.  One affordable way to frame this unique drawing would be to purchase a standard-sized frame at your local home store and then bring the frame and the artwork together to a custom-framer.  Ask the framer to mat the art to fit the frame.
