Dyslexia series #3

words overwhelm me
like ocean waves
letters move
I am dyslexic

Everyone once in a great while you will see a very personal, very emotionally charged painting. This one expresses how i felt when learning to read. The haiku goes with it, written on the back.

What are your challenges? How do you express them?

Smokey Mountains

So I've not shown you the drawings i did while we were on vacation in the Great Smokey Mountains in late June. .
This one is from the balcony of our rental cabin. I like to get up early and he likes to sleep. So i had plenty of undisturbed drawing time.

Then my husband was super awesome and we went out to an overlook. He took a mid-afternoon nap and i got to draw. The mountains are so different from what i am used to. I like to watch the shadow of the clouds drift over the hills, valleys, etc. I am happy with this drawing but you do have to see the Smokey Mountains in person.

I took a BUNCH of photos. As homework I've tried to draw out some of our vacation scenes. This one was completed in September. 

What do you like about the drawings? Where have you and your been adventuring this year?
