It’s hot in Florida in August and the sun puts a blinding glare on white paper so I am sitting on the porch drawing the plants and accessories that are situated around my chair. As I said yesterday the drawing itself is not the goal for me, the goal is to just get lost in the process, use a pencil, interpret the shapes, and get the proportions and perspective close. Nothing more, and these three pages took about 2 hours and really keep my eyes and hands involved. Just draw the stuff around you, don’t wait until you find the perfect subject, since that will almost always evade you.2b pencil on a medium surface drawing paper, I am not a fan of a super smooth surface, I like a little resistance to the graphite.
