Pierre’s Desert Easter Drawings

 

I almost forgot about this little drawing which my grandfather drew in one of his letters…makes me want to forget email, forget text-messages, and return to the art of illustrated letters. His spelling in English was whimsical, but I loved his handwriting with its bold flourishes and the margins (sometimes even the middle of the letter, like a pale watermark behind the text) filled with his drawings.

  1. This is an absolute treasure. Reminds me of the illustrated letters written by Beatrix Potter, complete with rabbit and all. Seriously though, this is a treasure.
