The Cast

The Cast

I know them

Yet I don’t

But here they appear

Somewhere in the past

Maybe

In a play

Maybe

I was in the cast

Though

I don’t see me

From a few days ago. I was doodling, ignoring those I was with, again.

"D" Getting the Story

“D” Getting the Story

This was her final performance in yesterday’s costume figure session. And old lime green rotary telephone was found among the props in the studio. If only I had had a green pen.

The pose was long enough to add a city in the background.

Argument with Self

Argument with Self

Not today

The first argument

With self

This is me

The original

I am

Not today

The other argument

With self

This is me

The character

I become

Okay, these are warm up sketches of “D” from yesterday. The sketch of her in the nude was from a morning session. I went back to sketch her again in the evening modeling for a costumed session. With room on the drawing from the morning, I did the costumed “D” warm up poses on the same page. This drawing is the result. Viewing so much attitude, I couldn’t resist the words.
