Looking Life in the Eyes
I haven't posted a piece of my work for a long time. This one is very personal. The drawing in the lower left is from a print of mine I did years ago. That is appropriate since the piece to me means a lifetime of learning to see what's right in front of you. The quote is from Sara Teasdale.
When I can look Life in the eyes,
Grown calm and very coldly wise,
Life will have given me the Truth,
And taken in exchange - my youth.
