Take Me Back Tuesday & Flashback Friday

April 1989
Age 15
10th Grade High School Art

I found these unfinished drawings in my sketch pad.  Yes...it seems I keep everything.
My son has a painting of this dragon in his room that I painted in high school or college.  I seemed to really like this dragon.

I saved all my art too. It's really interesting to look back and see what I was drawn too and spent so much time working on. Mine were Marc Jacobs leather coats... hmmm.

I am always so impressed with your creativity and artistic talents. I can barely draw a stick figure.
I love the wedding pic you have up in your sidebar. You haven't changed at all... so you are creative and ageless. So unfair! :)

I stumble across my artwork here and there, shoved into random books and journals. Some I'm like "wow, I did that?" and some I'm like "wow, did I do THAT...yikes!". I love the dragon...but I'm very partial to them :)

Tia Colleen said...

Oh look at how cute you are with your Dragons!! They look friendly :)

Wow, you are talented! I wish I could draw or paint, just haven't figured out how to translate it to paper like that! Thanks for entering my giveaway.
