Inspiration

I guess everyone lacks inspiration from time to time.  When I'm not in the mood to paint I get a little worried, because I know I've been distracted by things that don't really matter, negativity.  I'm usually a
positive being, but we all have a dark side...from time to time.
When I'm feeling down poetry lifts up my spirit.  Children do that as well.
I was reading a blog I follow: Cocinamos Entre Todos, in this blog art and poetry are found side by side,
and I found this poem, which I will share:
The main reason why I love it is because it says the soul can speak through the eyes, so true!


"Sabe, si alguna vez tus labios rojos
quema invisible atmósfera abrasada, 

que el alma que hablar puede con los ojos,
también puede besar con la mirada."
 
Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer



Volunteer Caricatures

Caricatures speak the universal language of laughter, a languaje which is not limited by geographical boundaries or financial status. It is only limited to accessibility and exposure. I always wanted to share my drawing skills to make children smile. Every Wednesday I head out with my easel, paper, and colors to the Children's Mercy Hospital in my hometown, to draw sketches of the young patients, who enjoy getting their caricature drawn, happily getting involved in choosing a cartoon body according to their favorite hobby,sport, or hero.
