Strength In Being Broken

The title of tonight’s abstract expressionist illustration is “Pieces Of Me”.

That’s it isn’t it? I am made up of multiple pieces. I am different pieces in all my different facets but try to stay true to my artistic self. When I can’t be at my studio drawing I seek paper and pen out in the world. My sons and I were at a book signing of Robert Shaw’s nephew (Quint from Jaws) new book. They handed out a questionnaire with a pen. I chose to do one of my illustrations on the back as Shaw’s very dry and tiring nephew spoke. I signed it and left it on the seat when we exited. I am sure they put it in the trash can gallery. I always have the urge to draw everywhere we go. The artist in me permeates into everything I do. I wonder if I glue all my pieces of myself together if you still would get an artist?
