My Graduating Training Class

My COMBAT TRAINING CLASS in May 2023 at the South Dakota DOC in Sioux Falls, SD.

This was my true joy to draw my amazing class and our trainers for our graduation class.

The 3-wk of combat training was brutal.  

Cheryl - Conlin Furniture Store

 I popped into a local furniture store in Sioux Falls, SD due to their clearance sale ... and I was greeted by a sales lady named Cheryl. As we were walking around the store, she asked if I used to work at a former company I had worked at. After a few more tidbits thrown in, she and I had met in 2016. We were coworkers. She was an amazing salesperson and I left with a much wanted purchase. I returned the next day to give her this hand-drawn, hand-painted watercolor painting for her to remember me, all these years later... and for my way, of saying "Thank You," for the deal she gave me. 

This was an 8"x10" watercolor painting created in late Fall 2023.

Dreams Do Come True

Final painting of 2020 and for the Kindness Project. Cansas told me she has never had a good Christmas. She is a new employee who works with me. She's extremely sweet. And she has dreams of joining the Sioux Falls Roller Dollz team. This was hand drawn by Amy Susan Petrik on 12/20/2020.
