Dear Subscribers,

Greetings!
 
Here is a finished graphite drawing from the evening figure class I'm taking:

 
We have started with a new model this month, updates soon.
 
I'm currently working on a cityscape. It's another 18x36 panel, but this time horizontal instead of vertical. Here's a peek at a portion of the work in progress:
 

 
I'm becoming more and more drawn to knife-painting. I realized that 5 of my last 6 paintings have been pretty much done with just a knife instead of brushes. I'm slowly learning that even when swimming in thick paint, there is always a way to fix or refine. This new cityscape is also being done with a knife. Should be finished before the next newsletter.
 
Bored? Here is an amusing comic about working from home. Some of you may might get laugh out of this, especially you self-employed folk (or spouse of).
