A Poem & A Painting: Drawing Figures
Jul 28 2014 ·0“Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is not possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad.”
~Salvador Dali
I drew/sketched this nude in a class with Dianne Panarelli Miller. It was called an academic drawing class. The lessons were VERY precise and measured, involving charcoal and dust and erasers (many for me). I can’t say I really enjoyed this class because it was so controlled with lots of paper folds and grid lines. I am more the type of artist that prefers to freehand draw ~ although I certainly need this training because my sketching is NOT great.
Getting Cheeky in Italy

And the cheeks. So many cheeks!
Traditional, contemporary, humorous and just plain…well, cheeky. Come take a peek at some of the best “cheeks” around Venice and Milan!
