I'm in the middle of a commission from near the Arboretum. I secured Willa's leash to a nearby planter to take the photo reference, and a woman scolded me. "This is my home!" she said, though I was on the sidewalk. "I'm just taking a photo-" I started, but she was clearly unhappy with my being there, in front of her apartment. She had a small dog in her arms so maybe Willa's presence had riled the little pooch. Who knows. We went for a walk and I came back later and I snapped the shot super quick and stealthy. I'll share the finished drawing in the next newsletter.
I'm super grateful this Thanksgiving for all the creative and positive people who fill my social media feeds without snark and judgement, just colorful hand-made images to brighten my days.
Big love!
Steven
