In my sketchbook...


My amazingly talented little sister was asked to coordinate structured art activities for children at the shelter. Yay! Wonderful volunteer job to have. I'm excited about helping her round up ideas and plan the activities. As I've said before, I believe art is more than just a fun pastime for kids. It's important. It gives them a voice, when they can't find their own. It allows them to create. Make. Be a part of something good.
