No, this post is not about Sandra Bullock’s film “While you were sleeping”. I guess most of you don‘t know that I make my Daily Drawings while she is sleeping. „She“ is Mathilda, my 8 month old daughter. Since she started sitting, she developed a love for staying put peacefully besides me while I draw.
Lucky me! We sing along to music and it gives me enough time to finish some pieces.
If you see my drawings from August to October and compare them to the ones I make now, you will see they have gained color and complexity.
These are the wonders of having more time!
Here in Austria you get up to a two-year leave after pregnancy. So, I made a deal with myself. During this time I will make my daily drawings, on a napkin if I have to, whether I’m ill or haven’t slept in three days.
These drawings keep me sane and make me feel alive, even if like today, I would rather be in bed.
All my Daily Drawings are available. If you’re interested, please contact me per email at art*at*atamayka.com. Thanks for reading!
