Blackwings


It has literally been years since I've sketched to any extent. The arrival of a box of Palomino Blackwings has changed that. My sketch pad now has several renderings in it. I forgot how difficult faces are to draw though—especially the eyes. I think the minimalist approach might be best when working the details. I think I'll replenish my supply of erasers and pick up a couple more sketch pads.

  1. My sister is an artist. She painted my portrait once and said the same thing. It's capturing the expression, isn't it?

  2. I definitely think you should do the things you said you would! You are an excellent artiste!

    Re your question on The Villages: Actually, that photo was a fluke...I was running a Photoshop action and stopped it in the middle and this is what I saw so I used it!
