Bravery of the mind is a powerful thing

Medium: HB pencil

Just a quick sketch that I did for a friend. =)

  As I began to draw this, I was thinking about how nervous I am to be starting a class next month. I'm taking a watercoloring class that is both scary and exciting!

Wish me luck!

MUCH love to you all!

What Gwen said. And great movement in this piece. Hope you enjoy doing watercolors. Once I started a couple of years ago I couldn't stop.
