IF: Little Things

IF. Little things


When I first read the Illustration Friday topic of "little things" I thought, okay cute little ladybugs...but on the drive to work, with my thoughts and prayers for Julian. This "little things" drawing came to mind.

Simple "little things" we use everyday and most likely take for granted.

Food
Water
Toilet Paper
Toothbrush

and the list goes on.

But what if you are

homeless

unemployed

a single mom on food stamps

which won't buy

soap
shampoo
deodorant

or anything else of a non food item

like tampax or pads.

So I am asking you to add a few items to your grocery list and not just for the holiday season of giving, but weekly or at least monthly. Then drop these extras off at your local Care Center, Salvation Army, Church Food Bank, Shelter, etc. Every city or town has one.

Thank you.

Good point. We do take the little things for granted. I recently had my wisdom teeth removed and it made me appreciate eating something as small as a noodle. Great post.

Love your art. It just has a life all it's own. You really capture things in such a vivid and original way.
