Daily Drawing #298, The Small Things We Do For Others

| Whitt’s End Art


I don’t usually do this but i decided to make today’s drawing a collaborative effort. In my day to day I work with high school age children one of which as you can see is a Charlie Brown fan. I thought I would draw the child a cartoon character of my own. The student then took my drawing and turned it into a pseudo Charlie Brown painting. In life there are some things which make you smile. For me it the little things I do for others, not to get any recognition or accolades but because it is part of my heritage as a Christian. I think if we all did the little things for others the world would start to be a better place/

Daily Drawing  #297, Drawing Your Self Portrait

| Whitt’s End Art

I have posted before how much I like drawing portraits. In fact on my other blog Tim the Artist I am doing a long term 100 Portrait Challenge. I think life is like drawing a portrait. Each day we add a line to our portrait until the drawing is finished on the day we are called home. My question to you is what kind of portrait are your drawing? One with the soft colors of service or one with harsh lines of a self-centered life.

Daily Drawing #293, A Reminder of Things to Come

| Whitt’s End Art

I know it is the fall but I try to move past winter to the spring to come and the coming flowers like forsythia. In life I find we do the same thing. We look ahead to much instead of focusing on the here and now/ While it is okay for certain things like financial planning it is not good get caught up in the future. In the end you’ll miss a lot of life.

Daily Drawing #290, A Cool Breeze is Blowing In

| Whitt’s End Art

Well it is that time of year again…fall, Autumn. Whatever you call it, the winds of change are blowing through. There is a new chill in the air. When I was a kid I got excited about this time of year because it meant Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas were not far off. Now as I sit here with another decade almost in the rear view mirror the chill in the air means more blankets on the bed, the air conditioners get removed from the windows and the coats and sweatshirts come out. Oh well, at least I have the coming holidays.

Daily Drawing #266, Bring A Smile With Some Flowers

| Whitt’s End Art

Flower are given as sign of our love to someone. Flowers are sent to bring comfort in times of loss. Flower bring a sprinkle of color to any garden. I guess that is why I love to create drawings featuring flowers because I know they are always a cheerful and colorful creation. I hope you enjoy today’s offering. As always remember God gave us a colorful world. It is our job’s as artist to create our interpretation of what we see in that world.
