My Brown Eyed Girl

For last night's sketching session, I drew Emma using one of my favourite combo's - watercolour & ink. I'm very happy with this, although it is a somewhat distorted likeness. I can't help myself - when it comes to Em, it's all about the eyes.

No drawing tonight - I have a review still to write about last week's guest lecture (artist David Fairbairn) and I dare not leave it any longer or I'm going to fall behind. Tomorrow we're off to the Archibald, Wynne and Sulman exhibitions at AGNSW.

I'm still here...

hope you are too! I've been struggling a bit of late with my workload, and this blog has obviously been put on the backburner. Then yesterday I got some news which threw me, and made me think, and do some self-assessment. My workload is all stuff I've asked for, wished for, worked for and hoped for. So I need to quit bitching about it and just get on with it.

Off to class now - above is picture of me in 2D imaging class, playing with the Photobooth program on the cool Apple computers they have - lots of fun!!

Sketching...

Adam had his 16th birthday this week - makes me feel about 105!!

We have been having nightly sketching sessions - Adam wants to improve his drawing skills, and I'm always happy to have some extra drawing practice. We draw eachother with different media - tonight it was coloured pencil and we changed colour randomly every few minutes.

I've been very busy with Art School and a multitude of other deadlines - I promise to resume regular blogging as soon as I am able.
