Drawing is one of my favorite forms of creativity, I’ve done it my entire life and I was in the art program in high school. I especially loved, and still love, drawing portraits. I wanted to share one I did of one of my best friends, Maggie.

The drawing is called Gunflower, named after the title of a song. The multicolored, vibrant string around her is used to mirror the positive impact she has on my life, and the piece as a whole is a testament to the value I place on friendship.
