Might we make some May Markings this month? Most certainly! Welcome to Week One of sketchy goodness! We’ve been sketching each day this year, and are still going strong!

In his post, we sync our artistic creations with their own haiku. A little sweet poem from me, to you.

Art and verse are paired
We hope you like the creatures
They sure like you, friend.
