Back to Drawing



One of my Christmas presents last year was this drawing book that looks like it has 5000 pages. Probably more. It is timely I guess for the fact that I've been thinking of practicing drawing especially storyboarding with pencils, crayons and ink. Don't really fancy oil paint and water colours at the moment. So it's back to practicing sketching and shading primarily but what I need to learn is to draw humans and facial expressions. So I'm starting by sketching from photographs I've taken over the years. This really stunning white flower was taken during winter in Perth.
