Sunday Sketches - Sadness

Hi everyone at Sunday Sketches! Long time no see! I have been busy with lots of insane stuff such as

1) radio show, political - music & technical assistance http://www.blogtalkradio.com/solidarityforevernwuat-large tune in tonight! 11PM EST
2) writing and assisting in the writing of essays regarding world politics https://www.contributoria.com/issue/2014-10/53f80cc14250074f61000281/production
3) helping my mother blog - to post, get more followers, etc http://artsnquilts.blogspot.com/
4) helping raise funds for my brother's adoption fees https://www.etsy.com/shop/aliciaraya?ref=hdr_shop_menu (25% of etsy earnings go towards helping my brother & his family adopt Shiloh, an orphan from Eastern Europe. More on this adoption & his successful adoption last year of a girl can be seen here: http://www.fromhouse2home.us/)

But through it all, I still would like to make time to visit the different peoples online I have shared art with over the years

This sketch was a commission from the custom charcoal gig - the story was to create a drawing that portrays an elderly person afraid to leave their house. I know it's probably not the most uplifting message/artwork, but i found it one of the more interesting commmissions I've received. The best part is that $9 goes to the adoption :D

Hope y'all have a swell day!
