This pint sized rocker figures in the earliest recollections that Grammie has of the days at the Wildrose house; maybe even before. It is as sturdy as ever still today, even after a few more kids and now a dozen grand kids from time to time ply its rockers. Chairs are always a good exercise in seeing and recording negative spaces as they relate to each other. Not a bad use of the flat led pencil either...

I had about 30 minutes maximum to kill when I saw this scene waiting to be put to paper. Not that I actually got this far in those few minutes; I had to finish it up over the next couple of days. The problem is not so much finding something to draw as it is making the time when the weather and other circumstances are cooperative.
