My African placemats came so naturally. Covid was full tilt. I love traveling to Africa, I feel totally connected to the universe, while sketching, it is an escape from reality to magical realism. With an intuitive understanding of animals, I love to express the regalness and playfulness, and the balance of life I get from the animals. I pulled all my sketches out from my 2 trips to Africa, turned the music up and let my passion and drive run into creating my African placemats. Of course it was fun!
