This is my 2011 art project: I'm going to attempt to do one drawing every day of the year. The drawings can be any medium, any size, any level of care and completion. I'm looking forward to seeing how my work evolves and improves, and whether this practice helps me to be more organized and "together" in the rest of my life pursuits.

1/12/11

I took the Metro in to the National Gallery today to get back to working on my copy of a Whistler. (click here to see my copy.)

Riding in on the Metro this morning

A detail from a painting that I'm thinking of copying next, "Madame David" by Jacque-Louis David (am I crazy??!!!)


Riding home on the Metro - very crowded afternoon rush hour

    I love the sensitive delineation of that bald headed man in the foreground (drawing #4?). I can virtually feel the smooth contours of his head in my fingertips! (He has a handsome head.)

    Yes, I felt like rubbing the bald man's head, too! That's why I drew it! He had interesting ears, too.
