Trumpeting Jake

Jake. My 10-year-old trumpet-playing next-door neighbor... 

We have been neighbors for 11 months. Quirky kid but me too. 

Drawn March 27, 2024. 9"x12" watercolor art by Amy Susan Petrik.

Genuine Humans Exist

 

Another human I have had contact with within the past 365 days.... And no, his eyeballs are not really crossed. I tell my brain to draw normal and this is the end result of what my right hand decided upon. Also an 8 inch by 10 inch original hand drawn with a Sharpie and a mixture of colored pencils, markers, and watercolor paints on watercolor paper. And i am the artist who performed this magic on March 21, 2024.

Let's Continue to Lift Others Up

Bookmarkers Were Once a Thing I Did

Once upon a time when I lived in Yankton, South Dakota....

I created a lot of bookmakers for children...

Never made a profit. 

They took forever to hand-draw and hand-paint each one. 

The darling little humans loved them... as I also laminated each one, and added a nice ribbon... each one was fine-tuned just for that child. 

Also, I discontinued these rather quickly.

 A lot of work and no one wanted to pay the labor of tackling each one individuality. 

Everyone wanted "discounts." 

Hard to work for yourself, wanting to spread cheer far and wide, when parents complain about the price of a talent you were blessed with. 

 

LIVE A GREAT STORY

Pretty simple. 

Life is far too short to live with regrets.

Reach out to your friends, coworkers, yourself...

Make sure everyone is in a good safe place.

With life. With their work. With their inner demons.

EVERY ONE MATTERS.
