This is one of the set of Pottery Barn bowls from a garage sale last summer that I enjoy using for still lifes. Just to see what I could produce in one half hour ---I set the timer. A fun exercise. I may go back in later today and put more work on the piece.

"Sketch of Madame X"

"Sketch of Madame X" by Sandra Galda
I am posting a sketch of Sargent's work I drew quickly while standing before it in NYC a while ago. Lately, I have been doing serious drawing that in contrast has me working much slower, using things like plumb lines to check my work. Thanks for looking, tell me what you think-leave a comment!
