Current project - drawing a friend/fellow artist up at the Weymouth studio. It began as a very informal experiment - we're sitting for each other's portraits - and has developed into a magical session. He has ethos , and his features are heroic.
"For the gods approve
the depth and not the tumult of the soul." - Wordsworth, "Laodamia"
Each session has lead to more discoveries, more ways to apply the training, to observe nature, to abbreviate, to explore the balance between the realism of what I see with the structural knowledge from intensified anatomy lessons and lectures.
Well, still much work to do.
