🌱 How To Submit: Go to my “vonnart” Instagram page for more info on how to submit and be featured on my page! ⁣🌱 For my first dirt kids,  I decided to start off with my own lil two happy, dancing dandelion dirt kids! Our backyard was a field of them back in May and I love them so much. I see Dandelions as being quite happy and free despite being labeled a “weed”. I think they are beautifully cheerful flowers that bring about bumbles and butterflies. How we view them is all perception! 🌼⁣⁣Looking forward to seeing your dirt kid creations! 💛⁣

@vonnart draw this on your style challenge! My dirt kid has a star jasmine sprouting from his head, the summer breeze catching the heady smell of sweet honey from each white petal. #dirtkid #drawthisinyourstyle #starjasmine #pencilonpaper #graphite #illustration #summertime https://www.instagram.com/p/CDKNO_ynWth/?igshid=1xut4xhj79qas

Draw this in your style from @vonnart #dirtkid This plant is a kind of cactus thingy from northern Argentina, where I lived as a missionary for 2 years. #mikelaughead #artmakescbus #drawthisinyourstyle #byuiart (at Columbus, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCJgrdvDu4K/?igshid=1rwkyneev2pco

Shroom Kid  - There is magick in nature and sometimes that magick can bring peace! 

I planted 3 bean seeds late last week (swipe) and yesterday one of them started sprouting, one was above the the dirt, and the last one was barely visible. ⁣⁣⁣⁣I immediately pictured these three brother beans, all growing at their own pace and trying to comfort the third one who felt left behind. And bear with me but I was getting emotional thinking about them as I was drawing because the story started to shift context as I started to see each of them as a person during different stages of life. I wish I could have been there to comfort my younger self and ensure him that it will be alright and that you will blossom eventually. And then I started to think about how all it really takes is just one person to notice your potential to make you feel alright again. The bean that is growing the best is disconnected from the sad one but can see great things inside of them! ⁣⁣⁣⁣ANYWAYS, I clearly was in a swirl of ideas thinking about how showing this simple depiction of three beings at different stages can be interpreted by different people. And the way they see it means something different depending on their lens of life! ⁣⁣⁣⁣Essentially, in the end I saw that this shows we need to be helpful and kind to each other during these strange times even if it's just to one person to start with, and even if that's just yourself! 🌱⁣ ⁣⁣
