admittance is the first step


Hello, my name is Suzanne and I have a problem....

I cannot save a drawing for a rainy day. As much as I try to keep myself from posting extra drawings as soon as I finish them, just in case I need them on a day when I have no creativity, I can't do it. I have to share right away. Same thing goes for presents. I could never store Christmas presents for months. If I buy your Christmas present in August, you are getting it in August. I just can't wait. Don't even get me started on surprises...

I suppose that makes me an enabler because I love seeing your sketches. They're just wonderful...keep 'em coming.

Same!

My husband gets father's day and valentine gifts whatever day they are bought as soon as he walks in the door. If I am able to wait even one or two days, I expect to be congratulated.

lol - I do the same thing with the gift giving. Once I tried waiting (~ 8 months) and then forgot I had already bought a gift by the time Christmas rolled around. I found it in a closet three months later.

Of course i love the drawing, but i also love how you kept the text close to it. And once again, you made me smile :-) Oh and i liked your organized chaos too!

You gifty people amaze me! I'm not a gift-giver; I just don't have that mentality, but I adore receiving them (not in a selfish way- I just like surprises, big and little). I'm the kind of person that makes a gift-giver love to give gifts- I get so excited!

None of us mind that you cannot keep your drawings. Just keep on giving them to us. Thanks!

This is beautful - as is the rest of your drawings. I love the detail that has gone into the folds in the umbrella. I must say I'm one of those who ALWAYS carries an umbrella around no matter the weather - has come in handy living in London! By the way, thanks for the comments on my blog - your mobile and book ideas are great! I may actually try them!

Your humor is great. I'm just the opposite and want to savor everything until the last. Well, except drawing...

Oh, I have that problem too - just have to post once the drawing is finished and then ages goes by with nothing to post! Guess it keeps us on our toes!

Hi!

I stumbled onto your site completely by accident. :) I was following a trail of links, and then I saw your umbrella. I like the way you think.

I'll be coming back more often. Definitely, yessiree. Cheers!
