This is my memory image. When I was younger, my family lived in Lee's Summit in a little blue house on Madison. My mom made our backyard pretty special. I had a swing set, a fort, a huge jungle gym, and a play house she built from the foundation up. I guess you could say I was really lucky. I spent a lot of time on the swing set in particular, which was right next to my play house that we painted lavender, my favorite color. I chose to try to stay away from linework and focus more on color since this was a memory piece. I drew the swing set with india ink because it was the most prominent thing I remembered.
This is my favorite place locally. I've always been a homebody, and thus my favorite place is my living room in my apartment. The couch is my favorite part of the room, so I chose to draw that with india ink, as well as the poster we have hanging above it. The couch was being thrown away, so we got it for free. It only has a small tear at the back, which isn't even noticeable. Yes, it only has one arm. We're pretty sure it was part of a sectional and the people wanted to keep the other part(s). Oh well. It was better than our last couch which was just an old futon. When we moved in my boyfriend and I painted the walls orange with a yellow stripe, which took a lot more work than I had originally thought. Either way, we're very happy with it.
