It was nice to have a standing pose and Ezster held it beautifully. Thanks for showing me your latest work and I hope to see both the portrait drawing and the figure work in person! Both are wonderful. Thanks Brian! It was nice to have a standing pose and Ezster held it beautifully.

Your drawing is considerably better than mine. Well done. You really caught the bulk and weight of the model much better than I did. Hope to work beside you again soon. B Hi Chantal;

I used to go to the TSA weekend drop-in sessions, but cannot find any information about them now. Do they still run them? I'd appreciate any info you can provide. Hello,

I love that idea! But the truth is that it's often through failed drawings that we improve. One step back often leads to two steps forward. And it's why I stayed for the afternoon session in spite of my bad morning. Hmmm… drawing and not ever failing! I love that idea!

I know exactly what you mean about the 'bad' days. There are times when I feel that I need to be re-trained - especially if I have been away from it for a week or so. But, we must remember it is an art, not a science. I don't think I want to get to the point where I can draw and not ever fail. Where's the fun in that? Keep working at it and the fun will continue.
