May 27 at the Hopper house





I have this large piece of charcoal, the size of my fist, that I tried drawing with- the paper fought me a bit, with not quite enough 'tooth' (texture) to grab onto the harder charcoal,, but it was fun to challenge myself with a little bit of discomfort while drawing in the hopes of loosening up a bit. I'll try some more experimentation this coming Thursday. I find these weekly sessions so helpful- working to keep the drawing muscles stretched.

May 20th at Hopper House



Just a-doodlin and working to keep dust from my skillsets. Think I could loosen up and put a little more weight and drama- but having fun nevertheless.

May 13 sketching at the Hopper House



Just a few studies from our recent session at Hopper House. These weekly sessions are so helpful for me; working among other artists, and stretching my 'sketching muscles'.
