I love drawing things. These days I am rarely found without a pen, pencil or stylus in my hands. In my working life I spend a lot of time in meetings and classrooms, reading papers and strategies, so my home life provides a creative antidote to all that! I also have chronic pain, lots of it. I have scoliosis, fibromyalgia and CRPS, so my life is a balancing act, trying to balance work, which make me feel part of the real world, with pain, which is ever present, and art, which soothes my pain.

Korka

I was on vacation last week but I came down with Covid (for the first time) on the second day and still haven’t got rid of it. So I haven’t drawn a single face in 10 days, which is the longest I’ve gone without drawing since I started drawing faces years ago. So it was so good to be able to pick up my pencils today and draw Korka from Sktchy.
