Here is today's work on the running cast project. More to do on this one, I am learning lots! I stand on a taped on "X" on the floor and wear a dedicated pair of shoes that stay in the studio so I can stand in the exact spot and exact height, stare at the cast, then walk up to the paper and draw.

Happy New Year everyone! I hope everyone has the best New Year possible! It is 1-1-11 !!! I had the chance over the holiday to fiddle with this old painting. I have not worked with landscape images very much, but had some time to tweak this attempt I made a couple years ago. I have so much to learn regarding painting and I think the learning never ends.
