drawing challenge: letters





I love writing, preferably with a fountain pen
I write a few pages daily and
cherish the letters I get
a letter, hand-written, is on top
of my wish-list every year
but
have I ever written a letter to myself?....

that's what I did, a letter to
the little me of 2 years old
'dear me, enjoy!, not so serious and be positive
you are good and good enough'

for more (intimate) letters look at Mano's welt 


drawing challenge: brieven

ik hou van schrijven, het liefst met een vulpen
ik schrijf dagelijks enkele pagina's en
koester de brieven die ik krijg
een brief, handgeschreven, staat elk jaar
bovenaan mijn verlanglijstje
maar
schreef ik ooit een brief aan mezelf?....

dat is wat ik deed, een brief aan
de kleine mij van 2 jaar oud
'lieve mij, geniet!, niet zo serieus en wees positief
je bent goed en goed genoeg'

voor meer (intieme) brieven zie Mano's welt

  7. Little Patrice!
    is so cute and beautifully drawn I would write to her too.
    I love her dress and little bobbed haircut I had one of these too when I was little.
    Such a lovely drawing Patrice

  9. yes! letters are something very intimate ... and yet today we can read the many letters of famous people. they belong to the world literature. are public to everyone...

    i love your drawing of your "kleine mij"
    a letter to yourself is a good way to listen to themselves.

  10. heel vertederend portret van 'kleine mij' en een idee om even bij stil te staan terugkijken naar onze kleine mij,
    ik hou ook van dat kruisje, de symboliek ervan,x

  13. A wonderful idea, writing a nice letter to yourself as a kid - to your inner kid...?
    Perhaps I should do this more often, instead of shouting at mine. ;-)

  16. Little Patrice is just so huggable! You've captured a 2 yr old's curiosity perfectly. The addition of the gingham cross is lovely. Big Patrice is very talented! xo Carole

  17. Patrice this is heartwarming and full of grace and your letter contains the message that is essential to the human soul and you are completely on track with the way things are supposed to be in my way of thinking. First, we learn to love our self and then we are able to allow others to love us. I don't know if this makes sense here, but it is my paramount philosophy of life, actually. Great post!! *smiles* Norma
