My favorite object

January 17th, 2009

Today’s every day matters drawing challenge was to draw your favorite object. After two divorces and having everything and everyone I love stripped from me, I have really learned to curb my materialism. I still want things, to be sure, but I just don’t find that I have the same attachment to them that I used to. The question that I kept asking myself was: “If the house were on fire, what would I run back in to save?” Of course the obvious is my family, then our clothes and photos… I don’t consider my family to be objects and clothes are a necesity not necessarily my favorite. Pictures are really just irreplaceable. I couldn’t come up with anything. So I changed the question. “If I could be doing anything in the world I wanted, what would I be doing right now?” Besides that. Oh, definately besides that. This is, after all, a family oriented blog. Anyways, just because you objectify someone doesn’t make them an actual object… It came down to golf, reading, and drawing. So, the closest I could come to a favorite thing would be my 7 iron.
