So many thoughts are with me on this sketch. My grandmother's lamp. As a child this was the lamp I would sit under to read my current favorite book. Books like The Black Stallion or Smoky the Cow Horse. Crazy for horses from a young age, they are a subject I come back to over and over again.
Grandma's horse lamp is now on my artdesk, forever a reminder of my grandmother and all the things a grandmother does and should do for her grandchildren. My life has been blest with strong, wonderful women who took care of me and still take care of me. I would love to go back and listen to my grandparent's voices as they told me about their lives, growing up and when their children were young or just saying my name.
