Your Interpretation?

I made this sketch in the dregs of sleep deprivation when my baby was only a few days old. This is what came out of my head. I have NO idea where it came from or what it is or what is happening. I'd love to hear your interpretations of what is going on between these two.

Latecomer

I failed to post anything before the project went in the mail. But I will post here. Ex post facto posts, so to speak. Hope you enjoy. You may detect a theme.

More Church Folk

I was proud of the expression I caught on this woman's face.

Each Other

This is a sketch from life of a couple at my church that often fall asleep in each other's arms, in the middle of the sacrament meeting. They're both rather interesting individuals. Whenever I see either of them, I often find myself thinking how glad I am they found each other.

PS Sorry for the absence. The recent snow storm knocked our power out. We got it back today. I love you, electricity!

Paying the Piper

Aaron gets drawn a lot for a lot of reasons. He's good at getting stuck working for hours at a time which makes him stay in the same spot for a while. I like looking at him. And he lives with me. Here's a sketch I made of him working long into the night. If you are wondering, he's wearing a hood because our house is cold and because he thinks his hair is too long and needs to be cut.

A detail.

Pen Switch

I was doodling in Sunday School and here's what I ended up with. I was excited because a guy in front of me fell asleep - perfect for drawing. But Reuben stole my pen and by the time I found another, the blue one, the guy woke up and left.

My Favorite Page

I think this is my favorite page of the sketchbook. I'm posting it in honor of Miriam's half year birthday which is today.

Brand New

Here's some sketches of Miriam when she was three days old. Reuben helped.

From No Where

This person doesn't exist. I was drawing from out of my head and this is what I got. Boy? Girl? I couldn't decide. But they have freckles. Freckles like stars in the sky.

To The Limit

So I spent yesterday finishing up. I lost count but I think I filled in something like 15 pages - while hanging out with my two compadres. This was one of my favorite pages. It was the first page of the sketchbook. More to come.

Done

Well, it's finished. I might be embarrassed to claim some of the pages (particularly the ones where I practiced drawing cats - my nemesis) Here are some samples:
