I have always loved to draw


I am certain that my passion to draw must have started before Kindergarten, but we didn't have pre-school way back then "Youngins'. I can remember searching my Mom's magazines for the perfect picture to draw, usually some models face. As my artistic endeavors changed with time I was hooked on drawing the multitude of Shanties and Canyons as my parents would load their 6 kids in the motor home to travel across the southwest part of the country. It usually was an adventure for them to visit their Midwestern roots planted in the field and ranches of North Platte Nebraska. When I didn't have a pencil I could always find a stick to burn and being the good Girl Scout I was, (or just lucky) I never burned anything down, I still use the burn method as pictured in the campfire charcol drawing with this post ... If i can get it to load that is
