SneakyArt for Unfamiliar Surroundings

 

Inside the cafes
I discovered my New World
Line by line by line

Looking out the windows of ECDC cafe, Eau Claire WI (21 March 2018)

Drawing on location was a way for me to understand my new and unfamiliar surroundings. After moving to the United States, I realized I had many unanswered questions. I didn’t know anyone around me, and I didn’t understand some of the things I saw. Who were the people and what did they do? What did they eat and how did they drink their coffee? What happened to everyone in winter? Important questions, all.

 

Line by line by line
But one drawing at a time
I could understand

I could understand
The more I saw, more I found
Art is everywhere.
