Very taken by the image for many reasons, some of which are unknown to me. But i want to repeat the drawing. I know from my experience with repeating that it doesn't happen. That first One , the one that has the magic, almost is impossible to re create. for me, anyway. So i don't try. But this time….this one…..i want to let my hand learn as if it is part of me. I want to try and try until i know what it is that creates the serenity. it is such a simple image but working with it the first time today, i see how just the most subtle touch of the pencil MATTERS
this is on one of the cardstock blank greeting cards. That in its self makes a big difference. The original is in that spiral drawing book of high quality cardstock pages that i remember to be described as oatmeal. and as i worked today, i understood why i remember. it's the light color. There is no identifier on it. I have looked for years to find more. So these cardstock cards will never have that luminous quality. But…the hand can still learn. Today, so much already. It's all taking me where i need to go.
