when the student is ready...

When the student is ready the teacher will appear.

This is how I felt this morning when I entered my studio.

Checking FaceBook and e-mails before drawing another face for today (Day #6)

In my mailbox was Joanie Springer's newsletter that I subscribe to.

Needless to say, I watched it and was totally inspired by it.

Take a moment and watch this short video.

         

After I watched this video I knew what I was going to do.

I went outside to find a stick to draw with.  I whittled a point on one end.

Got out my black and sepia India ink.

Sat outside on my patio in the backyard and drew this faces.

I had the best time!  

It brought back memories when I used to paint with odd instruments.  

Haven't done it in awhile.

That is going to change.

I finished these pieces in my studio using acrylic paint and pastels.
