August 18

I'm not at all happy with this one. I think I'm actually starting to prefer drawing from real life as opposed to a photo, as in this sketch, even despite the difficulties that may entail (my short-attention-span 19 month old, for one!) It's just easier to see the subtleties in value and color, in person -- there's so much more to a scene than any camera can ever capture.

Beautiful drawing. This drawing, along with the drawing of the view from the front of the house, definately have a sense of perspective. The drawings really "go back in space". I am knocked out by how great this set of postings is.
