Design is Thinking Made Visual
One gal’s drawing quest with her trusty companion
To say I have had a lot of time at home would be an understatement. If truth be told I have rather enjoyed my time, sitting in my warm home, in my comfy clothes, sipping endless amounts of tea, with my trusty kitty by my side.
Although some may say that they have missed a lot of what has gone before, I can honestly say I haven’t missed a lot at all. But for some I understand it’s been tough, like really tough. Even if you decide not to buy anything (please buy something) I hope at the very least my drawings, stretches and silly words will at the very least make you smile and brighten your day.
It was my sister who started me on my jolly drawing quest. At that point I didn’t know I could draw, but as I started to explore my creative side I realised how much joy there is in an old fashioned pencil and paper (I have also invested in a number of erasers too). My gorgeous husband told me I was good, he seemed surprised by this “talent” that I seemed to have. After all he has known me for over 11 years but was blissfully unaware. The drawings I did made them both smile. My friend was so happy with her picture I drew for her that she showed it to her sister, who thought it was good enough to be printed on clothing…..WHAT?! I mean WHAT?!
So I have to thank them and my Papa Bear, with whom this talent originally lay.
Core Values
Apparently here is where I write my core values, mission statement or other such stuff. I really struggled with this, hold on, that sounds terrible that’s not what I meant. What I mean is, the core values of company are its foundations, the beating heart of why the company was formed, why it trades, what it standards for, what it wants to achieve.
Mine is really simple, I wanted to make my husband smile, when he was working so hard and constantly in 2020. I could have brought him a gift, I could have cooked his favourite meal, but I wanted something he could look at again and again and again which would take him out of the most the stressful moments and transport him to a moment of joy, knowing that there is someone who will always draw the most silly things just to make him smile. So, I suppose its joy, I want all you guys to be able to give a gift (to yourself or loved one) that reflects a moment of joy, which can be relived again and again.
To serve others is a privilege, to know I am able to create so many smiles is a gift I cannot translate. I hope my smiles will travel from me to you
