Undisciplined

Hmmm

Okay, first post of the year.

That should make it obvious that I am not a disciplined writer. Not that I have ever claimed to be such. The gift of words, such blessings has never graced my life. So even a paragraph like this is a struggle for me.

It is easier than speaking in front of large groups of people. That I am sure of.

The attached charcoal sketch was for fun; but, it turned out a lot better than most.

Imagination and a few references were the source. Something I like to do; but, it does not help me develop the skills I need.

The ability to draw what I see. It’s muscle memory and needs to be exercised by drawing on site, on in studio, some thing in front of me.

So I start to arrainge my schedule to include drawing from life, from objects, and anything in front of me.
