recent drawings and musings

















Still on the figure. I read recently that the majority of brain functions are dedicated to reading other people's facial expressions and emotions.

more of the model







I have started craving my Wednesday night drawing sessions. :)

It took me a little while to get going during this session, been reading a book about why we draw and just finished a chapter on how the brain works as we draw. I kept thinking about all millions of neurons firing and imagining all the different parts of my brain lighting up as I used them. And I never realized what a beautiful machine the act of drawing is before. All the different mechanisms the body and mind do to create a line, the right line.
