What did I learn today in class? Drawing is just like life!
I used to think that great artists, good artists got it right on the first pass. It’s taken me 7 decades to understand that all artists continually make corrections. Draw, adjust, erase, draw, redraw, erase . . .
Luckily, it only took me 5 decades to figure out that life was about continually making corrections. That reminds me . . . I need a new eraser.
Here’s my sketches for today – One is loose and the other uptight

Graphite pencil, I shaved his head so he’d be more “hip”.

You go girl!!! I am pleasantly amazed. I knew you were taking classes, but had no idea how amazing you are at drawing. I know you have said you have an amazing teach, but it looks to me like she had a great subject in your basic talent that helped her bring out your best. Hugs, Judy
