Studio in January

I drew an old man. This time it was all studio easel drawing, and I was reminded why I work on more table-top and sketch book projects in the winter.... It's uncomfortably cold in the dead of night in my attic studio. Gloves are hard to work in, but not working is hard to cope with, so it's cold fingers yet finished drawings.

Train

....and warm.

Getting warmed up now... almost there.

Hat

After weeks of forgetting it at my house, and me wearing it out and about Mike finally gave me his hat.

It always takes me some time to work my way into a new sketchbook. But, a new book I have. And so, I shall try to post as much from it as possible, starting with the first scribble on the first page and working my way in.

Eggs, Wax, and Labor

Last weekend I enjoyed a visit from my friend Bonnie (see ear drawing, http://joshwishart.blogspot.com/2008/05/last-night-coffee-bonnies-ear-more.html ) and we spent a couple of solid days working out an idea of hers. Finally we came up with some acceptable methods to produce some prototypes.
