about face....

about face and coming to my own realization that my own timeliness and daily devotion has been a bit of a struggle; and yet, i find a huge amount of satisfaction in doing faces...

i have to give a bit of thanks to Myrna Waknov. if you are not familiar with her work- check out here. i was fortunate enough to have taken a class from her 2 year ago. at the time, i thought it was a bit crazy but, we were going to draw the same face all week. Myrna taught different techniques and ways to manipulate and use the picture to push us outside of our comfort zone; but, we truly used only one picture of a face all week.

the biggest thing i got out of the class was that i could do it- i could draw a face; and actually- like Myrna- i find that i like faces that are more interesting. interesting features or wrinkles....




tried a few varieties of techniques these past few days but, loved all of these.
