“Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen. ”

Leonardo da Vinci

The pictures below are 10 personal drawings from my journal at a very difficult time in my life, no titles, no dates, just raw emotions that I was at most times at a loss for words…I’m no professional artiest, these are all simply done with a mechanical pencil. However, they are my art. They are all emotional, raw & full of pain.

The pictures below I’ve again drawn with simply a mechanical pencil, in my large drawing book. These are titled & dated 2022 (Except for picture 4 that is 2024) as follows: Picture 1: “Let music guide you home”Picture 2:“Tie your dreams to a paper airplane…let them take flight” Picture 3: “Someone to grow with”Picture 4:“Even poison comes in shiny bottles” Picture 5: “Love can poison you slowly” Picture 6:“True love has no string attached to your freedom”Picture 7: “Seeing growth in others inspires your own” Picture 8: “Tomorrows a new day, birds will keep singing” Picture 9: “Love in the Hall of Mosses” Picture 10: “Growth is painful”

The pictures below I’ve again drawn with simply a mechanical pencil, in my large drawing book. These are titled & dated 2022 as follows: Picture 1: “Dorothy” Picture 2: “Only that moon” Picture 3: “Life is too short not to express your feelings”
