I just bought the book of your work on your website. I look forward to having it. Once again, I really enjoy your style.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />PeterAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09020206349498706724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839494021570903121.post-46882315656579340102017-10-16T20:11:07.660-06:002017-10-16T20:11:07.660-06:00Hi Peter,

I hope you will enjoy the artwork for a long time. <br /><br />The red-pencil bird was drawn as a preliminary for a large painting in which a chubby bird was to be used in the border design. And then I just kept drawing and the Victorian-looking bird emerged. Much of the time, when drawing, I sort of get carried away and new ideas and characters spontaneously come out onto the paper. That's one of the most enjoyable parts of the process.<br /><br />Hope we can meet at some point--I have a studio at Helikon Gallery in Denver and you are welcome to visit anytime! Again, thank you.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />TomTom Sarmohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00312089637813146270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2839494021570903121.post-19617846526954146672017-10-16T16:43:10.631-06:002017-10-16T16:43:10.631-06:00Hi Tom,

I have to wait until the end of the show to pick it up. When I do, it will occupy a prominent spot in my office. Thanks for the creativity!<br /><br />Was there something you had in mind when crafting it? Was it a sketch for a particular character you were working on? <br /><br />Thanks!<br />PeterPeter Lairdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03129951400907428207noreply@blogger.com
