feeling artistic. mid~day creativity

my son ethan loves music. he loves everything about it, from compiling a very eclectic mix on his ipod to having headphones become a new body part. once recently, i sat and asked him not to move for a while, to just listen to the music. i grabbed a pen and paper and just followed the contours of his face, and his new body part, his headphones, into a simple line drawing. this is the result.

what i really loved when i finished was that as i know my son, this nailed him. his personality, his look, his mood, just perfectly him, all the way around.

i hope this mid~day saturday finds you feeling positive and creative. i'm in the mood to get my camera out next. who knows what will happen ;) enjoy!
