Why I still Layer Colour After 30 Years of Drawing
Thirty years into drawing, I still return to layering — not for perfection, but to let the work breathe and hold meaning beneath its surface.

Welcome to the Blog
I'm Jeannette Sirois, and this is where I talk about drawing. I spend a lot of time with coloured pencils, working slowly, often obsessively, and always with the intention of pushing them into more contemporary territory. This blog is where I share that process—what’s working, what’s shifting, and what it means to make art that’s both technical and rooted in the world around us. If you’re exploring your own path with drawing, you’ll probably feel at home here.
