it's so hard to wait

I know, I know.

Another week passes and I still haven't produced a drawing that I want to share. So today, once again, I found solace in a ballpoint pen and some Adidas trainers. Predictable but comforting.

Wow, what a great drawing. You've gotten such great texture and subtle shading with your pen--wonderful technique and eye for your subject: you've elevated the humble trainer!

This is not a shoe blog..this is not a shoe blog..I know she said this is not a shoe blog..but all I see are shoes.."Honey, where's the number of my therapist?!" (My god - did that get printed here? sorry..)

Ship your pile of rejects to me! I love this - by selecting part of the, uh, shoe, the focus is on all those wonderful lines, and it is very interesting. And, as always, so well done.

Funny how that works! We tend to go back to our comfort zone. Don't fight it...you will find inspiration somewhere...your zone is amazing!!

a lovely glimpse at the shoe - very nice. Comfort zones are good to go to every now and then - but challenge is good too!

Thank you, guys.

Dan, indeed, where is the number for your therapist?

Rick, I don't know! I wish I did. I just can't shake it, right now.

Cheers, my dears.
