For many reasons, this drawing holds a special place in my he[art]. Most notably, I created this drawing only a couple of weeks before my daughter was born. This assignment was to draw hands in an interesting and personal way. I could think of no better way than to depict my hand, along with my wife's and my son's hands, resting on the little bump in my wife's belly that would sound join our family.
As if that wasn't enough (which it is), this is the first piece of my work that was accepted into an art show. In the spring of 2012, Anticipation was chosen to be part of the 46th Annual National Drawing and Small Sculpture Show at Del Mar College in Corpus Christi, TX.
