Cherry Blossom Afternoon 9x7.5 Graphite on paper
Saturday, when the sun was beaming high in the sky, I came upon a picturesque group of women gathered under our Cherry Blossoms for a picnic. I dropped everything and grabbed a frame of them. I don’t mind working from photographs as reference when, they truly are just reference. So tonight I put the image up on the screen and sketched out another geometric configuration. Sketching provides a great place for me to work out idea’s, for better or worse. I often learn as much of what not to do as what clearly is working. I’d love to turn this particular sketch into a fully wrought out drawing with clean geometrics. Perhaps that will be an upcoming daily post, rather than later.
Very nice.
