ILLUSTRATION

Well, what can I say. Today I was commissioned to illustrate a small book aimed at Sikh's who have had a child die. I met Dr.Surinder Bahkshi in Birmingham, in his home and he said he chose me because he "felt" I was the right candidate. How cool is that? Also, there is a possibility, if this goes well, that he will use me again for other books he has planned. Im not charging much, probably far too little really, but its for charity and Im not exactly a star in the world of illustration. But this feels good and scary at the same time. He was a lovely man, retired, and he explained that God has given him plenty so now he is giving some back, and each day he and his wife go to the temple to serve food to the elderly..............He also explained about some of the Seikh symbols. Had a good day today. Finished the afternoon by taking Molly to the woods where her nose had an amazing adventure! Oh, and yesterday I had a phone call from my friend Maz who I met at University. So nice to hear her voice. I thought that when I left University all of these young people would naturally forget about me but no, the opposite seems to be true. I feel blessed. So folks, its time to go, and like me, please remember to love all and hurt none, and offer only positive thoughts to those around you. Peace to you all.
