When we got the call that school was closed for the day due to 6 inches of new snow, I must admit I was relieved. At last an excuse to hide away from our schedule and just concentrate on some forgotten projects that were calling my name….
I had some 4″x 4″ wood squares that needed some paint. The text was taken from some old airplane maintenance books from the 40’s. I love combining the technical verbiage with the loose, colorful imagery.
Here is my illustration that was used in the 2014 calendar for Hopelink. They do a wonderful job of helping those in need,in my community and “offer an integrated array of programs that enable families in crisis to make progress toward and achieve self-sufficiency” I was very thrilled to be included in such a beautiful calendar for such an important organization. Can you guess what month it was? If you said September, you’d be right! The beautiful little girl is my niece.
