Resigned









Resigned. Black, blue and navy micron pigment ink and black India ink on 14"x17" Bristol board. Still part of the Cadena de Amor series.



So I gaily walk along the brick path 

and chanced upon a fork on the road.
I stand tall and firm contemplating 
the scene before me, what to do?
I am at a crossroad.
This is getting old and I am weary.
It took me more than three days
what used to take one.
And for what?

M.V.I.C.M.W.

Ballpoint Pen on Moleskine Ruled Notebook

I wanted to post my Illustration Friday entry for "Hide" but I have not figured out how to post a link. So I am skipping it this Friday. If Illustration Friday was a course, I enrolled in it last fall and have yet to attend a session...

M.V.I.C.M.W.


She loves to straddle her feet. She likes laying on the floor and propping her legs and feet against the wall or on the backrest of sofas and love seats while she lounges. Something she frequently did when she was a little girl.

She lives among the pages of appointments, notes, numbers and recipes picked up from dinners and parties. Her full name is Maria Victoria Isabella Christina M. Wellesley.

After she graduated from college she went to San Jose for a mandatory community service internship. She went home in spring the following year. She looked forward to spending time with her best friend who was pregnant with her first child. That summer her best friend died.
