Margaret In The Mail

Going through some old sketchbooks I came across a page that had a drawing of Caley’s Mom that I started one afternoon a few years ago when we were visiting Indiana. Deciding to finish it was easy. Margaret Lents is a gem of a lady & who wouldn’t love to unexpectedly get their portrait sent to them in the mail? I know I’d freak out, in the good way, if it ever happened to me. Ah vanity, where would we be without it? My friend Rachel sometimes sends me whole boxes of art in the mail, unannounced, and it’s always the best thing ever. The practice of random gifts of art comes with my highest recommendation. It goes in the mail today & I hope it makes her smile.
