  • Winter Depression….Just Deal with it!

    The title is a note to myself, not to those others who are suffering from SAD.  It makes one third of the year horrible, so I have tried many techniques through my art to …just deal with it! So, one year, I did a drawing each month to make peace.. An example was making peace…
