Number four of ten


They say that in order to make a change you have to do things in a different way. I learned a lot from making this drawing for a couple of reasons:
I started out drawing with a stick and ink (hmmmm).
I could only see half of the piece while I was working on it (big wall issues).
I took a break overnight in between halves.
I managed, for a change, to push through the tightness and horror vacui into the eye of the storm (where white space works and scribbles are good). I love this eraser.

OK, I know I'm way behind in my 10 drawings in 10 days project. I've had a cold; I've been pretending to be a cowgirl in Nashville; I'm getting ready to do a gallery drawing at Elmira College next week. But, we press on.
