Nyumbani Sketch

Here's another sketch coming out of Tanzania! I've collaged imagery from a few places that represent my home.

In Nora's Sketchbook I started with sketching a hex sign (Pennsylvania Dutch Folk Art including the Distelfink Birds that represent happiness and good fortune.) In the background I've included Lancaster County farmland from my youth in Pennsylvania, and to the right is the view from my home in the British Virgin Islands (where I lived for 3 years--- my first home with my husband.)
In the foreground I've included scenes from Tanzania.

All media went on super smoothly and the background imagery/texture was inspiring! Great idea, Nora!

Cheers!
Stacy
