This sparrow lived in the awning above the front door to my building, which I can see from my bedroom window. Each morning, he would sit on the wrought iron in a spot where the decorative glass had fallen out and would sing. I woke up like this each morning. One day, I woke to find him on the ground under the awning. I miss his song.
"Serenading Sparrow" Jessica Boehman, Watercolor and digital drawing, 2022. They say you are supposed to start your year doing the things you want to do for the rest of the year. So, I drew. I sang, as rusty as I was. And I played my guitar. All things I want to get better at this year. Hopefully by 2023 I won't be such an amateur at the last two.

"Sam and the Starlings" Jessica Boehman, 2021. Watercolor, ink, inkwash, and digital. So since I've been learning to play and sing Free Fallin', I've been listening to a lot of Tom Petty and watched the new documentary last night, which was really fascinating. I've always liked drawing to lyrics, and this lyric from one of his songs, Walls, made me put away my other projects and draw today. It felt good to be drawing just for fun--very soul-soothing.
