It’s always interesting to watch how art affects him. Pedro is a very outgoing man, always with many stories to tell, whether about the changes he's witnessed in his native Santa Ana, or about the current goings on with the neighbors. But, when he falls deep into his work, Pedro will go all evening with hardly a peep. Art has a way of calming us and pulling us into those quiet places, giving us time to reflect, escape, and breath easy. Breathe it in, Pedro. It's all for you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5238fb4ae4b0870410a10096/1481872335286-V8SSD3JU0OTUW7N1M3WA/image-asset.jpeg Heninger Village - August 2016: Being Love with gradiating color, claudia and i work together to introduce the very first elements into her new sketchbook. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5238fb4ae4b0870410a10096/1481873886836-88W2U4TXHN0QAE6UP1F5/LaVerne+notes.jpg Heninger Village - August 2016: Being Love Some other thoughts from La Verne’s sketchbook which she has graciously allowed me to share—words gathered from conversations and from books, ideas absorbed, notes to self, and musings that have fallen gently upon her heart. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5238fb4ae4b0870410a10096/1481874441266-RGXSRM8T5SC1H1LRXXF3/image-asset.jpeg Heninger Village - August 2016: Being Love La Verne, sharonda and i spend the afternoon in the studio.
