      A few weeks ago, I decided to take up Will’s draw 50 things challenge. It’s my version of “Grapes of Wrath.” I’ve always admired those farmers who packed up everything and moved 2000 miles away using a vehicle I would be afraid to drive across town. I see a lot of mistakes I made in this and I am still struggling with the shadows. Maybe one day I will revisit it, but right now I think I’ll do something else for a while.

              I think that super colorful quilt is my favorite part. And the way you made that car look so rusty!

                  This is awesome, but I almost thought that lady had a child's head in her hand.
