Having nothing new to show you for our regular Wednesday link party, I decided to get out my folder of magazine clippings and do a quick sketch. Not a very good likeness but I am just using the picture for inspiration anyway.
For a change, I chose an African model. And so of course she needs an African name. I decided to name her "Bibi", an East African female name meaning "daughter of a king."
This is what I always tell my daughter when she feels insecure about something, or compares herself with others who have more than she does. You are the daughter of a King!
"And I will be your Father, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the LORD Almighty."2 Corinthians 6:18
Linking up with all the other folks showing off their desks for What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday!

That is, as ever, stunning, but the way you say "a quick drawing" is another kind of "stunning!" :D

Well that’s an amazing sketch Peggy and you say you just did it quickly…..I’m in awe!
I think you’ve captured the essence of “Bibi” perfectly.
Oh, and you shouldn’t be ashamed to show your shambles….sorry I mean desk because I’m sure we’ll see far worse on our Wednesday travels, Lol!

I cannot believe that is just a "quick sketch". You are so talented.
Beautiful blog. I like the idea of Workdesk Wednesday. Reminds me that I should clean my desk :)
This "quick" drawing is incredible! Not only does it look like the woman in the picture but you have also captured the energy and feeling!

Well,because I worked down and am late I saw Bibi in your next posting and commented. I so enjoy looking at your artwork as what stage it is in. Love this - absolutely beautiful.
Only just had my WOYWW posted as I have been away and now am hoping someone can guess where I have been - little prize for the first to do it. Hugs, Neet #133
What an amazing artist you are! Happy (late) WOYWWED!
