Illustration Friday: Prepare

Smile, micron pen and watercolor on watercolor paper, 8x10", 2012.
“Waking up this morning, I smile. Twenty-four brand new hours are before me. I vow to live fully in each moment and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion.”
― Thich Nhat Hanh

I read that quote in a book recently, and think that they're excellent words to prepare you for the rest of your day.

This is my first Illustration Friday of 2012! Happy New Year!

Also, I got a twitter account; I know a lot of Illustration Friday people are already on there. Find me @SarahRyanDraws
