Letting go
Giving a picture away always brings mixed emotions. I am of course delighted and amazed that someone should want the picture and it is such a joy to think it will be treasured and on display in someone’s house. So much better than sitting unseen in a pastel pad gathering dust. This has always been my view.
But each picture I draw has a synergy between me and the dog or person. I feel a connection especially to the dogs that I have been drawing, an empathy and a love and compassion for them. When I frame a picture I feel proud of it. It seems to come to life even more. When I send it off to live with someone else I feel as if a bit of my heart goes too.
