Drawing Charlie
I am touched and grateful by some of your emails in response to “Choices”. Thanks for sharing how you look at your family before and after. It was indeed very encouraging.
——————————————————————————————————
On a lighter note, I want to share with you how my art classes have progressed. Somehow I think this country likes everything runs in “intensive and express mode”, even in education.
I started this course 1 month ago. Because of time constraint (with work and start of semester), we had to complete 15 lessons in a month, which is within the school break. (yup, that’s 4 times a week).
My art teacher strongly discouraged it because she thinks we need time to absorb and practise..but OH WELL..

After drawing cones and blocks in our first 2 lessons, we moved on to drawing more complex objects…and subsequently, more and more “CHARLIE“!
3rd week: Introducing Charlie…

4th week: From pencil to ink and brush –> No excuse to use eraser!!
And Charlie was more “excited” after a week = getting tougher to capture his movements.

2 more classes to go…”Baldy Mary” is in progress…

Come and think of it, we were surprised that we have “progressed” this much within a short time. *gulp*
Nope..don’t think we get to draw naked people..

You are trained in Multimedia whereby you drew a lot of things using computer technology. Most of the output do not have soul in it but now I found you back to basic, back to real drawing.
The different is the real drawing contain your thought and it include all your perspective on the object. It is a great change indeed!!
