Ahead

None of us knows what is ahead of us. I find it's best to stay in the present, although that can be easier said than done. So for the Illustration Friday theme this week I've drawn the view ahead of me at this very moment. Statue I've had for ages, plants from friends, jug from Greece and stones from Cornwall.

Anairam said...: I love this illustration of yours. Is that a Buddha sculpture? I have eight(!) in my home and garden - I feel more peaceful and calm with them around me. Odd. One is a bronze head that I sculpted and had cast in bronze at a local foundry. I still have the clay macquette that I made for it ...; 26 April 2010 at 12:32
