Soar

I was thinking of the view of the bird soaring above the landscape. My thoughts then went to Iowa and the upcoming caucus votes, which then led me to think of the Iowa landscape, the focus on Christianity (or just the semblance of), the difficulty of peace on earth and the hope that the soaring peace dove might offer. I doubt that all these things come across in the illustration-but they're there in my head!

This is the illustration background for a child's prayer/poem written by a client. The text goes over most of the illustration.

I want to be able to post to Illustration Friday, so....just set this blog up-I love so many of them-hoping to eventually get something a bit more personal-in the creative realm, that is. So...here goes. These are my girls, Maggie and Camelia - ready for Christmas and whatever wonderful thing each day brings.
