Because I’m More Generous In The Fall

***TIME’S UP!! Go here to see the winner!****

Hands down, fall is my favorite time of the year. I can breathe in the crisp morning air and feel like a new woman. I can listen to bickering with nary a twitch. I cook dinner with a smile on my face, or at least in my heart. Gosh darn it, I might even put away the freakin’ laundry!

Maybe it’s because I was born in the fall. And the color of fire all around me gives me a boost of energy that’s pretty much non-existent the other times of the year.

But lucky for you all, I’m feeling especially fun and generous, and want to give you something.

Yeah, you read that right. I’m doing a GIVEAWAY, but first let me tell you a little something. Fall also inspires me to break out my drawing pencils and do stuff like this:

That’s a portrait of The Cuteness in case you didn’t recognize him in pencil form. And that’s what I’m giving away. NOT The Cuteness or his drawing, silly!

I want to draw something for you. Someone, that is. I only do people.

So here’s how it will work.

Leave me a comment, saying you want a groovy pencil drawing of someone you like or even love.
Post a short blurb on your site about this giveaway and spread the word.
Wait anxiously for The Official Day of Fall, which is September 22. I will end the giveaway then and announce a winner that day using a random picker thingy.
If you don’t have a blog, NO WORRIES! I’m not prejudice! Just leave a comment.

Now, if you would like to use one of my drawings as a button of sorts in your post about the giveaway, then you can choose whichever one you like at My Art Gallery page. Or you can go to my Flickr account and get different sizes on the one you choose.

And here’s the fine print: I only draw people. Mostly faces. This giveaway will be a PENCIL drawing. I know I have some watercolors on My Art Gallery, but maybe another time for all that nonsense. If you win, you will send me a JPEG file of your subject. Hopefully it will be a good shot of them. Then I can print it off here to use for the drawing, so no one has to part with any precious photos. And I know many of you have several loved ones to choose from, but for the purpose of this giveaway the winner should only choose one. If it goes well, maybe I’ll do it again!

I’m so excited. For Fall to make it’s entrance and to give someone a drawing. Two of my favorite things wrapped up in one!

And if I forgot any pertinent details, be a peach and email me. Now go forth and enter
