Double Gold Star for Mark


who sent me
Bridgman's Complete Guide to Drawing from Life


It arrived home yesterday evening. It really is full of exactly the sort of thing I've been trying to find. Full of poetic explanations and notes on what is involved, what you have to remember to think about, when drawing the human figure. Balance, rhythm, distribution of masses and details about the body's mechanisms.

The illustrations are also a blast. They are a combination of Baroque and superhero comic books.

Thanks Mark, and all my readers for ongoing support of this project.

Attention denizens...

Please take a moment, if you are religiously inclined, to pray for a reader who kindly wrote to me offering her good wishes and prayers for my cancer recovery.

She does not say directly that she has cancer, but that seems to be the implication.

(I do not pass her name along, since she did not write into the commbox, but God will know if you just say, "That lady Hilary was talking about".)
