Drawsum.com - Open Art Project
http://www.drawsum.com/
Open to anyone and everyone. You can start your own sketch or add to an existing one. I did, just for the fun of it.

My blog name is Diaspora. What's in a name? plenty.
I am a Crimean Tatar diaspora born in Turkey. My life has been shaped by stories and images of the Mother Land, The Green Peninsula in the Black Sea, Crimea.
I am also a diaspora of fashion. I am no longer in the Dog Eat Dog world of the immensely fast paced Garment Center. I do miss the excitement and exhilaration but I also enjoy the solace of living 69.5 miles from NYC.
I dedicate all my future endeavors to my mother who at the age of 82, the week of her death, was still talking about how to utilize the beautiful fabrics she had bought from upscale fabric stores like Paron during the late 60s. I will now, with the help of my daughter, put those fabrics to use. Thanks mommy. Mommy and daughter pictured below.
