Curtis Wiklund and his wife Jordan are photographers. He also undertook a challenge to draw something every day, whether in the mood or not. He decided to chronicle their lives together, the good and the bad, the happy and sad, and he has done a stunning job of showing love in all its shapes and forms. I just love the simplicity of his drawings. He has a book out called “US” I bought it and it’s beautiful. He has continued his drawings, now including his children. His drawings continue to touch me, bringing out ‘aws,’ smirks, smiles, and a few tears.
Curtis and Jordin Wiklund are photographers from Michigan, specializing on couples who are in love.
Curtis also sketches as a hobby and challenged himself to produce a daily sketch blog recording his and Jordin’s life together. This has resulted in a book called US . I bought this book and occasionally gift myself the opportunity to look at the sketches once again. They are truly unique, with the love between them showing through loud and clear no matter what is going on that day.
“David Zinn has been creating original artwork in and around Ann Arbor, Michigan since 1987. For more than twenty years, he freelanced for a wide variety of commercial clients while simultaneously sneaking “pointless” art into the world at large.”
Devon Rodriguez is a New York City artist. He offers drawing lessons, and custom portraits. He keeps his skills sharp – and just seems to have fun – sitting on the subway or a train and sketching random people who interest him. When the sketch is finished, he simply goes to the person, says, “Excuse me, Ma’am, I drew you,” handing the person the sketch. When people offer to pay him, he tells them it’s free. Their delight will warm your heart.
