To Draw!





I need to put down the book and draw.  There are so many ideas floating around in my head.  Especially since I have refilled my 'Inspiration' folder with lots of new images and photographs to browse as I sketch.  Still life is a very unexplored topic for me yet the attempts I have made in the past are generally a success.  The question is... what do I have that would be fun to draw?

I have also been thinking of drawing Evangeline and the 7 guardians (from a short story I have written).  I have never attempted to draw a 75+ woman and it would be and experience.  I can draw older men and younger women but my younger men tend to look too feminine and this will be my first attempt at a grandmotherly type.

I took some photos on the Blue Ridge yesterday but I haven't moved them from the camera yet so I'm not sure of the quality.  I didn't have the tripod and was a bit hasty at the best overlook due to being alone and a creepy guy in a convertible BMW. 

Spring skies are amazing here in NC.
