so there it is. I almost did a John Lennon sketch, but I went with a more direct approach art-wise.
definition of a Mommarazzi: play on the word Paparazzi. A Momma that snaps practically incessant photographs of her children every day - never leaving a camera behind! I jokingly coined the name for myself years ago when talking about how I would photograph my future children and it stuck =)Blogging about kids, crafts, photos and life. I have added the Marisa Photography aspect of the blog, which is my business that's still in the infancy stage. Eventually it will have it's own home!

Inspiration
so today's drawing challenge is inspiration... so many people/things inspire me... but being that this is a drawing challenge, I went with one of my favorite artists - Peter Max. My love of stars and bright colors and my cartoonish style are all basically emulated from him... I was introduced to his work at a rather young age in my adolescence and I know his artwork inspired the Yellow Submarine animators so he lis linked with the Beatles - and who doesn't know of my undying love for them?? haha This is my imitation of one of his self portraits. I remember going on a cruise with my Mom when I was 16 and the gallery on the ship's featured artist was Peter Max. It was THE BEST! I wanted to buy one sooo bad but what 16 year old had at least a couple hundred bucks to spend on a painting or *print!* on a family vacation... haha
