Expecting 6-10” of snow overnight, our first big snow of the season- I’ll try to get out to take some pictures.

Thanks SJD, 🙏
I’m starting to re-look at the landscape (not just water scenes), green is such an interesting color to work with.

Thanks SJD, I will start some drawings with a lighter pencil & then run out of time to get to the darker grades of pencils. But the effect is nice.

I was just listening to some Sting solo work the other day, “nothing like the sun” - “Sister Moon”and his version of “Little wing” Good tunes!

Yes, I don’t let it bug me too much, as you say , just nature. It’s funny, but I will self label as nudity and those get the additional labels, I think if I didn’t label the drawings, they wouldn’t get any additional labels, maybe they are more for photos? Not sure 🤔

Thanks tee,
I hear ya about A, B &C,
I do like bay windows, good reading areas.
I keep thinking about a group of smaller “bird forms” on a similar base, you could arrange the birds like musical notes 🎶.

Thanks SilverHowl, 🙏 figure drawing is such a basis for relatable shapes, lines, gestures and emotions. I Get the alerts slapped on some drawings not intended to be sexual, but have never heard back on any appeal.
