New Posts soon.

There will be a truck load of new stuff posted soon, oil paintings, photoshop paints and figure drawings. Looking forward to spending some time off, I am ready for a break but I have to remember to continue working, just not as hard, not push so hard during a break, I will coast during the next break and then when it is time to strain for further understanding I will. In the past breaks I have almost completely ignored practice and I have found that it is INSANely difficult to find "The Groove" again. It is difficult but possible everytime, it averages at about 5 weeks to find again. I would like to cut that time down to about a week or two, but now the possibility of Constant Groove status has entered my mind as an option...I like breaks though, they make life Super easy and simple. I have been reading a lot, a love reading something over and over to make sure i get it, I usually have to learn through repetition because I won't pick it up the first time but after I do read it and understand and then put it into application the results are almost instant. I get the "It actually works" moment. rewarding. I have been drawing with my right hand when my left gets tired. I am teaching my right hand slowly, When I get frustrated with my left, instead of sighing a lot (which happens anyway) the first thought i have about what to do next is swap to the off hand and this usually gives an automatic refresh. I will draw right handed for a few minutes and when I feel comfortable again I will toss the pencil over to lefty. Anyway New posts real soon, the term is almost over and I have plenty of work to do still.
