Oh Dear. I really shouldn't let my interest in the materials overshadow what i know about drawing the Caricature. By Feeling the Caricature so I'll know what to draw. That's the way we Enjoy people by drawing them, anyway.

Is Art about Enjoying People? Or is it about Enjoying Art Supplies ~

I was feeling so sad this evening. Overwhelmed with it. Couldn't shake the old Loves that i had chosen to end. As I went to the dentist, and i think he gave me a placebo instead of laughing gas. As i went shopping for the Agent who insists i wear khakis at his gigs. I gained weight. Couldn't shake the Powerful sadness. Down. Sadness.

Came home to find some real neat Corrugated Plastic had arrived. That should have made me happy. I started watching a movie ~ The Red Planet. I'm liking it, but it didn't hold my attention. Got distracted and started watching YouTubes. Not lost in that sadness so much anymore. In limbo. Then I flitted over to redrawing one of the pictures I had posted a few hours ago. I like Coloring in PhotoShop a lot. I've been so pleased with my PhotoShop work lately. This afternoon, I had successfully made a Black Outline for the front of my blank Party Papers.

And here's tonight's picture. Not sad anymore. I'm just tired of feeling sad. And I'm experiencing a neat expression that I heard somewhere: If we're feeling regret, it can only be because we're living in the past. If we're feeling anxious, it can only be because we're living in the future. If we accept the present, we will feel content'.

I feel so fortunate that my life turned out as comfortable and meaningful as it has. I focus my love on the people that are with me now. I am able to love.

Such a quiet morning on a College Campus. Nobody showed up until the Doors of the Event Opened. Then they came around so quietly. I guess they're very different at their own night-time events.

Anyway, things sure started Warming up by the time I was finishing my part of the event. Might have been walking around as quiet, calm people. But I can still see what they look like. Surprise!

Good Morning ~ Another day. Waking up to a note from my Agent. Niiice. It's so good to have opportunities to help people with my Artwork. To help them Enjoy their lives.

My Agent sent me some notes that Clients had sent about me:

Alison was great!!!! Alison was great!!!! She did phenomenal work and she was an excellent sport. It started pouring outside, she was more concerned about the kids faces getting messed up, than about herself and her supplies. She asked for an umbrella for them, she was awesome!!!

Eventually we got in from out the rain and she continued her great work. I would love to have her again at my next event. Latoya Lashley

Her work is outstanding! I had the pleasure of having Allison draw faces for my son Dante's 13th Birthday Party. Let's start with her promptness. Not only was she on time, but she came by prior to so that she could familiarize herself with the directions, so that she would be able to get here on time. She had a very warm personality, and with the going on of the party, she fit right in. Her work is outstanding, and I would definitely recommend her and use her for future entertainment. Thank You for such a wonderful professional artist. Leona Allen-Curtis
