"Adrift..."

...in an infinite sea of white puffy clouds

floating somewhere over Iowa

my Muse's thoughts

sought safe harbor in the point of my

trusty Pitt pen.

This drawing was the result.

I was so intent on keeping a steady, smooth hand

during the drawing process

that I did not even notice that people in my row,

on both sides of the aisle even,

were watching me draw.

Good thing I was oblivious

and

artfully adrift in my own little world.

Drawn aboard

USAir...Flight 1...Phoenix to Chicago...02.07.10...

then colored at "home" in Illinois.

Illustration Friday: "Adrift"

“Twenty years from now

you will be more disappointed by the things

that you didn’t do

than by the ones you did do.

So throw off the bowlines.

Sail away from the safe harbor.

Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Explore. Dream.

Discover.”

~Mark Twain
