Coping with Life Drawing

By Heather, on September 25th, 2009%

I haven’t been able to post any of my Life Drawing images because we’ve been working on them in the classroom.  I still don’t have the drawing/painting I did of the skeleton, with the human form laid over the top, as it is still up on the wall at college.  I haven’t had . . . → Read More: Coping with Life Drawing

By Heather, on August 29th, 2009%

Finally, for the first time in about a week, I managed to do some drawing!

My dad is home from hospital and doing better, and I’ve managed to sleep properly these last 2 nights – probably due to exhaustion!
