MarblesAndJam

My mom enrolled me in drawing classes when I was in the third grade. I was hopelessly uncoordinated, and the hope was that drawing and dance lessons would help. Well, I'm still an uncoordinated mess, but I can draw!

When my own son came along, I didn't enroll him in any drawing classes, but I did share my love of art with him. He has taken off on his own, and draws every day.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Although we've both been artists for a long time, I never thought about really pursuing selling my art until several years after I left my son's dad ~ it was an incredibly abusive relationship that ripped both myself and my son apart mentally, emotionally, spiritually. During that relationship, and for a few years after leaving, both my son and I experienced a dry spell in our artistic endeavors. We had to do some major mind reset work on ourselves to get back to our joy in daily life and to get back to creativity. It's been more than 13 years now and we are both healthy, vibrant, and happy!

I hope that you can see that in our artwork. Jam (my son, aka JP) inspires me every day. I just hope that I inspire him half as much!

With love,
Marbles (aka mom, aka Malea)

FINE PRINT
This is illustrated by hand, and thus there will be slight variations in line weight, and little imperfections here and there. That's part of the charm.

This is designed to fit US 8.5 x 11 inch paper, but depending on your printer settings and tech skills, you could adjust it to fit larger or smaller paper.

I find drawing to be therapeutic the same way some people find coloring to be therapeutic. Whether you use this to ease your own mind while coloring, or you plan to give it to a child to color, I hope you will enjoy this piece of illustration.

The watermark in the image is NOT in the PDF file. Your PDF file will be free of watermarks, and only includes the illustration.

As with all of our digital items, this is our own work. Please use your file for your own personal use, and do not distribute it publicly or sell it. We work hard at our art, and we hope you will help all artists by respecting the integrity of our work.
