December 1, 2011.
Passion, not the cold, woke me up and got me out of bed this morning. It got me up and into my seat so I could finish this portrait of a lovely young lady taking in the hot sun and the warm air on a beautiful summer's day. Having listened to "Summer Song", a collaborative work from the Blackbyrds and the late, great Grover Washington, Jr., I thought that it would be an appropriate name for this drawing because it, meaning the song, captures almost everything I felt, saw, and experienced in the summers of my childhood.
