This is Erin, who got a drawing I did of singer Lana Del Rey for her 16th birthday recently. Her mom Lisa said she was "over the moon." Finishing a drawing I really like feels great. But seeing a photo of someone who got one of my drawings as a present is as cool as it gets. There's a close-up photo of the drawing a few posts back.

After receiving a drawing of mine as a gift herself over a year ago, Robin has had me do drawings of friends as gifts. This past Mother's Day, Vicki and Deanna got these drawings as gifts from Robin, both of photos from their heyday as pioneering women skaters.
As a Sharpie artist, what do I do when my brain is tired from concentrating? Adult coloring... sort of. I draw freehand "doodle art" pieces, and then color them.

Here's the first drawing Robin Logan (above) had me do, her older brother Bruce Logan.
