My creation and contribution for this year’s THE SKETCHBOOK PROJECT is titled, ONLY HUMAN. And this year, I decided to actually sketch…go figure. 🙂 I’ll be posting pages over the next few weeks, so stay tuned. You can see all my previously posted sketchbook pages by searching my blog for ‘The Sketchbook Project’.

Left brain, right brain, I can't decide. After many years of successful visual arts pursuits, I'm working on my other creative inclinations. For the past 8 years, writing has been my second full time job, and it's worth every sleepless night.
Sheri J. Kennedy grew up mostly a city-girl coasthopping from Seattle to rural Pennsylvania, Miami and back to Seattle. She currently resides on the banks of the Snoqualmie River in the scenic Cascade Mountains. Her heart has found its home.
I think the best drawing! Really emotionally expressive.

It’s an emotion I spent WAY too much time with in my life. It’s no longer a burden to me, but it was a long journey before I learned to set that bundle of nerves down.

I’m enjoying your book, but the fear image made me stop to comment-terrific!

Thanks so much! I was working hard to be faithful to the expression with my lines, and then even gave myself chills when I ‘stepped back’ and looked at the finished drawing. I think it’s so interesting to draw human expression. It’s the first time I’ve ever devoted myself to such a project, and it’s amazing how every line in a face says something. I’m sure you have experienced that with all of your fabulous portraits and expressive works. It takes a lot of focus to keep from taking a shape or line wrong and changing the whole emotion.
