3rd Entry for Aug 1, 2011






The top four of these are 5-minute studies, with varying degrees of success.  All are done with hard compressed charcoal on 18 x 24" sheets of cartridge paper. 

The fourth one down was a challenge issued to everyone to try a `wrong hand' drawing, so it was done only with my left hand.
The character of that is quitedifferent from my right-hand drawings. It may have been co-incidence, or that I was more warmed up. but the 10-minute study that follows it below was more focussed than the preceding ones. I think throwing periodic challenges like that does get one's brain more in gear, which seems to be borne out here.
