This is a pencil drawing I recently did. The well is from my parents/grandparents front yard (they live in a duplex so their houses are attached). A family friend made the well, and my grandfather absolutely loved it. When he was going through with planning his funeral arrangements he wanted to have this well put on his headstone. My parents asked me if I would do a drawing of it that will be laser cut into his headstone. So I did, and I was very honored that a piece of my artwork will be on his headstone forever. He was able to see it before he passed and it made him very happy, which made me even happier. I feel blessed to have been able to give him that before he passed away. The process of cutting it into the stone takes a long time, and even though he already passed, it won't be ready until the spring. That's when I will take some pictures of the actual stone and put them up here too.
