Ready



Ready

The second time this week I was able to sketch from life. Yesterday in a costumed life drawing/painting session. It was in a masked and distancing safe studio of course. And “NE” the model was further away than usual.

Ghost's Ghosts



Ghost’s Ghosts

They’re back.

Those still able to hurt 

continue to surface 

out of the blue. 

 

Daily sketching. Sketches of screenshots of random characters I don’t know at all who showed on my laptop screen.

Returning

Yesterday I was able to draw from life again in a masked with social distancing studio.  It was great to sketch “J” again after so long in this almost an hour-long pose. It’s been over a year.
