Sketching the baby

Lila and Lailan by Lila Marquez (pencil on paper, 2018)

I've finally reached the end of a long hiatus. Once again, I'm steering my way back the blogosphere, which seems to me like a memory long gone. I have, however, managed to work through a couple of sketches to ward off the blues.

Even though the trip had all been spikes and sighs, I was still able to drive home a pocket-sized artwork in flesh and blood, a little human about to walk this bumpy road called life with me. So, I guess I'm up to more sketching, blogging, and mothering from now on.
