In spite of the warming trend I only half dressed and instead of rushing
outside to glory in the warming trend, I propped a drawing I had worked on last
Sunday against a piece of furniture in my dining room and worked on it for over
an hour. The challenge always is
that the model is absent and so is the combination of muted natural light and
artificial light of the 3rd
floor studio – in place of which I have the mid day light of my south facing
dining room. Not that I mind but I do nevertheless have to be cognizant of that
difference. Not that I wish to burden anyone with that trifling detail, it’s enough that I burden myself. Now I hardly sound sincere and that poses
a different kind of problem – a peculiarity of character that I’ve had years of
practice at. You know what they say – practice, practice, practice.

ReplyDeleteKim this is a glorious, valentine of a comment – thank you!!!
DeleteLovely. I love what you did with it. As you know I am not a complex person, so I envy you your written complexity. But I'm no good at envy either, so instead I just stand (or sit as I am now) in awe. Aw shucks. I better go and do some work. Wonderful. I love your work.

Barbara, I’m not a complex person either - I just like to ramble especially if I have nothing to say, I just have to invent something, make something up – anything to fill space. Anyway I am a huge fan of your work and Kim’s too – I so admire your zest for life.
DeleteLove,
Marcia
