Keep you fresh. However, I find WC to always getting pushed off to the side because it is easier to draw and needs less equipment. You do such wonderful CP work, and I know it is time-consuming, so its perhaps nice to switch gears and get in a quick WC sketch from time to time?Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540050745681475664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6391600460847704245.post-41911452026470645142009-08-11T02:36:51.029-04:002009-08-11T02:36:51.029-04:00I really love the way you put the pencil down on t...I really love the way you put the pencil down on the paper.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6391600460847704245.post-7873010840304737842009-08-06T12:07:49.376-04:002009-08-06T12:07:49.376-04:00Thanks everyone!

But I really like to see your drawings from different medias, they are just so different and good in different ways too. :) But your 'cool' colors are just unique!<br />Thanks again for your previous commentsAlexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02621662753557056346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6391600460847704245.post-75508809443571830572009-08-05T15:36:44.441-04:002009-08-05T15:36:44.441-04:00I just keep taking new classes but that has got to...I just keep taking new classes but that has got to stop. Working predominately in one medium as you are doing is a good thing. Your watercolor is a good diversion and will improve till you might want to spend equal time or it might even take over from you pencil work; who knows, but you are doing great so I need to learn from your consistency and quit flitting about if I want to improve my own work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6391600460847704245.post-80427780808013990252009-08-05T14:14:22.885-04:002009-08-05T14:14:22.885-04:00Oh That water color is rich and vibrant!Oh That water color is rich and vibrant!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08394915578291177357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6391600460847704245.post-88679729990585320642009-08-05T11:56:07.242-04:002009-08-05T11:56:07.242-04:00Love the looseness and the colors..
