I went to life drawing a few weeks ago as I have been doing regularly for decades. I've only shared a few of them on this blog. I think it's time to share some all done in one session. The top two on the left were done in 10 minutes, the bottom two were 15 minutes and the one on the top right was done in 20 minutes. Let me know what you think.

Here's a second quad of drawings I did while doing a residency in Italy. The top drawings are from Rome and others are from Farindola. Farindola is a small town in eastern Italy that was built over a thousand years ago. Old town is full of folksy romance with its’ thick stone walls, barrel tile roofs and narrow pathways.

 Some of the 30 composition/value studies done on a recent artists residency in Italy. I was honored to be one of six south Florida artists invited to do a 12 day residency in Farindola, Italy. I did some watercolors too but this is a drawing blog. We spent a few days in Rome first, hence the Colosseum sketch.
