Drawing Challenge: Day 44 Whisper

The world so needs the love and concern for others that children have, whose love springs forth naturally and completely.  Children love with an almost perfect love, and if we can capture that in our lives forever, how blessed we would be, and how enriched our world would be.

Let us “become as a little child” in these important dimensions. May we, this day and always, remember these words of the Savior and retain and develop the powers given to us very early in our earthly lives: the power of believing, the power of faith, the power of obedience, the power of service, the power of near-perfect love, and the power of boundless enthusiasm for the really true things of our Father in Heaven. 

—James M. Paramore “Become As A Little Child”

About the Artist

I’m an artist, author, and poet. My work is often shaped by lived experiences and by paying close attention to the world around me… nature, and the people who have helped shape my life.

I usually paint first, and the words come later. Painting has been the safest way I’ve found to be honest about things that are hard to say out loud, and over time I’ve noticed other people finding their own stories in the work too.

My paintings are meant to comfort, to feel like a presence rather than a statement, and to give space for each person to find their own meaning. The connection that happens there matters most to me.
